The future vision of Villa Park.
Villa Park is home to a rich heritage and unique atmosphere that we want to celebrate, expand, and enhance.
We want to not only redevelop Villa Park for the benefits of our fans and players but to make a difference beyond the grounds of the stadium. To do this, we are developing a wider masterplan for Aston in collaboration with Birmingham City Council and the West Midlands Combined Authority.
We have developed a set of aspirations that demonstrate our vision for the future of Villa Park, to help focus our plans on what is important to the club, fans, and the local community, and will underpin everything we do.
These aspirations are:
– A stadium that is for more than just football
– A catalyst for local regeneration
– An integrated destination for the Midlands
– A dynamic public area for the community
– Inspiring a new generation of football fans
Villa’s proposal
We are proposing to increase the spectator capacity to over 50,000 and modernise the stadium to create a world-class sporting venue that can satisfy the growing demand and enable us to compete at the very highest level. The plans also set out our commitment to the local community, creating a destination that can be enjoyed all-year round.
Our ambitious plan to support the regeneration of the area will begin with an £100m+ investment in the first phase of improvements to Villa Park, with works estimated to take place late 2023 and construction completition toward the end of 2025.
The key areas of phase one involve:
– A brand-new North Stand wrapping into Trinity Stand
– Enhancements to the existing Trinity Stand
– The creation of Villa Live, a brand new standalone multi-use entertainment, community, and retail venue destination
– Redevelopment of the Witton Lane entrance and the public space around the North Stand
