Aomori Velodrome (青森競輪場 Aomori Keirinjyō), also known as Jomon Bank Aomori Velodrome, is a velodrome located in Aomori City that conducts pari-mutuel Keirin racing - one of Japan's four authorized "Public Sports" (公営競技 kōei kyōgi) where gambling is permitted. Its Keirin identification number for betting purposes is 12# (12 sharp).
Aomori's oval is 400 meters in circumference. A typical keirin race of 2,025 meters consists of five laps around the course.
