Watford Stadium is a closed halt on a disused railway in Hertfordshire, England. However, it continues to appear on lists of railway stations and still has published fares from other stations. The station served Vicarage Road stadium, home of Watford FC, and was only served on matchdays.

It may once again see trains in the future as part of the Metropolitan Line as part of the Croxley Rail Link, though the station itself is not due to be reopened as Watford West is deemed to be close enough to handle the stadium traffic. London Underground have not entirely ruled out opening the station on matchdays, if increased crowds required this some point in the future.
