This is a list of football stadiums in England , ranked in descending order of capacity. There is an extremely large number of football stadiums and pitches in England, and a definitive list of stadiums would be difficult to produce. This list, therefore, is limited to stadiums that meet one of the following criteria based on current capacity:

Old stadiums

Following crowd troubles in the 1980s, and regulations imposed after the Taylor Report, several English league stadiums have been built or completely redeveloped in the last few years. Prior to 1988, however, the last newly built Football League ground in England was Roots Hall, Southend, which was opened in 1955.

Future stadiums and developments

Stadiums which are currently being built, redeveloped, or have planning approval without work having commenced include:

StadiumExpected
capacity		ClubNotes
City of Manchester Stadium (redevelopment) (under construction)61,474 Manchester City In August 2015 construction of the first two phases of stadium expansion were completed and subsequently passed all safety requirements at a specially organised test event on 12 August 2015. The South Stand has been extended with the addition of a third tier of seats and three rows of additional pitchside seating have also been added to all stands, expanding the current capacity to 55,097. A final expansion phase, extending the second tier back with an additional 7,900 seats commenced in 2023, with completion aimed for 2026. The stadium's capacity after the third phase is expected to exceed 61,474. [64] [65]
Stamford Bridge (redevelopment)c. 60,000 Chelsea In June 2015 Chelsea unveiled plans to expand Stamford Bridge to a capacity of 60,000, [66] however in January 2018, in spite of the local councils' approval of the £2bn development, plans were blocked due to objections of a single local resident, referencing light restrictions of the build; so the plans were shelved. [67]

Under new ownership though, Chelsea have continued to explore their options with regards to potential redevelopment, rebuilding or relocation to a new site; even going as far as to implement a task force to oversee the potential viability of these options. [68] In October 2023 Chelsea completed an £80m purchase of the Sir Oswald Stoll Mansions adjacent to the ground, though any redevelopment works are still a long way off being rubber stamped. [69]

Everton Stadium (new build) (under construction)c. 52,888 Everton On 24 March 2017, Everton announced they had agreed to purchase land at Bramley-Moore Dock located in Vauxhall, Liverpool with intent to build a new £300m-plus stadium. [70] After plans were approved by Liverpool City Council and funding was eventually found through private means, the stadium's construction work began in July 2021. [71] The build is scheduled for completion in early 2025, in time for the 2025–26 season.
Elland Road (redevelopment)c. 53,000 Leeds United Leeds United's Elland Road expansion plans for a phased project to give the ground Uefa’s elite status and retain unique atmosphere [72] [73]
Villa Park (redevelopment)c. 50,000 Aston Villa In January 2023, plans were approved by Birmingham City Council to redevelop Villa Park and the surrounding area, involving the demolition and rebuild of the North Stand, increasing capacity from 7,000 to 15,000 seats. In addition to this, the developments also included a hotel, museum and club store among other amendments in the surrounding area. The ground would see capacity increase to approximately 50,000. [74] However in January 2024, the proposals were officially shelved by the club, citing their desire to not reduce capacity in the time-span of the build, putting these proposals at risk. [75]
King Power Stadium (redevelopment)c. 40,000 Leicester City In September 2022, Leicester City Council approved initial plans for expansion of the King Power Stadium as well as wider developments of the land around the ground, including a fanzone, hotel, indoor arena and residential tower among other works. The plans were fully approved in December 2023 by LCC, [76] however a date for when the development could break ground has yet to be confirmed, due to the project being subject to finance. [77]
City Ground (redevelopment)c. 38,000 Nottingham Forest In February 2019 the club confirmed an extended lease on The City Ground. This extended lease meant the club was now able to proceed with plans to redevelop the stadium and surrounding area. Central to this redevelopment was the replacement of the Peter Taylor Stand with a new 10,000-seater stand, and improvements to the Trentside area, Brian Clough and Bridgford Stands.

The club submitted plans for these developments of the ground, with the proposed capacity increase up to 38,000 after completion. [78] These plans were formally approved by Rushcliffe Borough Council in July 2022 though work has yet to commence. [79]

Selhurst Park (redevelopment)c. 34,000 Crystal Palace Plans for a new 13,500-seater Main Stand were approved by Croydon Council in April 2018 [80] with plans even scheduled to commence as early as January 2019, however due to Covid-19 restrictions, the financial constraints this brought along and amendments to the initial proposal, the development has been delayed significantly. In October 2022 however, the revised plans were once again approved, [81] though the club are still awaiting final approval before any work can commence. [82]
Power Court Stadium Project (new build)c. 23,500 Luton Town Plans were approved in January 2019 for a new 17,500-seater stadium in the Power Court site of Luton town centre, [83] with initial plans for completion scheduled for the start of the 2020–21 season. [84] Due to external factors however, such as the Covid-19 pandemic's financial impacts on construction costs and Luton Town's promotion to the Premier League in 2023, the development has been delayed though still in planning. Amendments to the initital plans due to Luton's Premier League promotion have taken the potential capacity up to 23,500. A start date for the wider Power Court development has still yet to be confirmed though. [85]
Kidlington Triangle (new build)c. 16,000 Oxford United Proposed new stadium in Kidlington, Oxfordshire. Due to the lease agreement of Oxford's current ground the Kassam Stadium, expiring in 2026, the aim for completion of the new stadium is estimated for the start of the 2025–26 season. [86] An agreement has been reached on heads of terms for Oxfordshire County Council to lease land near Oxford Parkway train station. Though plans are still in progress. [87]
Northfleet Community Stadium (new build)c. 8,000 Ebbsfleet United Proposed new stadium as part of the wider regeneration of Northfleet Habourside. Plans were approved in April 2024 by Gravesham Borough Council, with works on the stadium scheduled to begin in September 2024 with an aim to be complete by August 2026, potentially in time for the beginning of the 2025-26 season. [88]
Eco Park (new build)c. 5,000 Forest Green Rovers Proposed new stadium for Forest Green Rovers in Eastington, Gloucestershire. Designed by Zaha Hadid following a 2016 design competition, [89] it is reputedly going to be the world's first timber stadium. [90] Planning permission was approved by Stroud District Council in December 2019. [91]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Pirelli Stadium</span> Football stadium

Pirelli Stadium is an association football stadium on Princess Way in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, England. It was built in 2005 and is the current home of Burton Albion FC, replacing the club's old Eton Park home, also on Princess Way, which was demolished and developed into housing. The ground was built on the former site of the Pirelli UK Tyres Ltd Sports & Social Club, and having had the land donated to the club by Pirelli, in return for naming rights, the ground cost £7.2 million to build.

A large number of English football clubs have ongoing schemes to redevelop existing grounds, or to move to newly constructed stadiums. A trend towards all-seater stadiums was initially prescribed by the Taylor Report, and was originally a condition only of Premier League admission. It has now become a requirement that within three years of a club's first promotion to the Championship all paying spectators are seated, even if the club is subsequently relegated. This page provides an (incomplete) list and description of those clubs who have planned new stadiums or refurbishments, or who have already moved/refurbished since around the time of the Taylor Report.
