Seppe Airport (Dutch: Vliegveld Seppe) is a small general aviation airfield in the south of the Netherlands, located near the town of Hoeven. It has one single asphalt runway, 07/25, with a length of 832 meters and a significantly displaced threshold (meaning an area at the beginning of that runway is not to be used for landing) on either side.

The airport started in 1949 as a glider field and has been used by powered aircraft since 1969. In 2002, the runway surface was changed from grass to asphalt. The airfield is not to be used by aircraft using jet engines. Around 50,000 airplane movements (a movement being a take-off or a landing) are made at Seppe annually.

The airfield is also home to a small flying museum, "Vliegend Museum Seppe" ("The Flying Museum of Seppe"), having various aircraft, most of which still airworthy, such as a de Havilland Tiger Moth and a Yakovlev Yak-52.
