This is a list of international women's cricket grounds in New Zealand, including all venues that have hosted at least one Women's Test, Women's One Day International, or Women's Twenty20 International. As of December 2024, 37 venues have hosted women's international matches.

The White Ferns played their first WTest against at Lancaster Park in February 1935. They played their first WODI and WT20I away from home, in June 1973 and August 2004 respectively. Their first home WODI came nine years later during the 1982 Women's Cricket World Cup, against at Cornwall Park. Their first home WT20I was played against at Sky Stadium in February 2010.

Because New Zealand had not hosted WODIs until 1982, 12 grounds hosted their first match in any format during the 1982 Women's Cricket World Cup. The same occurred for a further six grounds during the 2000 Women's Cricket World Cup, and for a further three (all in Lloyd Elsmore Park) during the 2024 Women's T20I Pacific Cup. Many of these grounds have not hosted any women's international matches since those events.

Women's international grounds Below are complete lists of grounds used for women's international cricket in New Zealand, listed in order of first use (regardless of format). The dates given for Tests are that of the first day of the match. All matches are between New Zealand and the team named, unless otherwise specified. Correct up to the end of the 2025/26 season.
