Birmingham City Reveals £1.2bn 62,000-Seat Stadium Plans

Birmingham City has unveiled ambitious plans for a new £1.2 billion stadium, dubbed the Powerhouse Stadium, which is set to open in 2030. The 62,000-seater venue, located in the east of the city, is expected to secure a naming-rights deal and is intended to propel the Championship club towards the top of global football.

The striking design, revealed in October 2025, features 12 chimney-like structures as its centrepiece. Chairman Tom Wagner believes the stadium will transform the club's fortunes, providing a modern home to compete with the best in the world.

The announcement comes amid a wave of stadium projects across English football, including Manchester United's planned 100,000-capacity arena and recent moves by Tottenham, Everton, and West Ham to new grounds.
