Opened 2006
Arsenal's home since 2006, the Emirates Stadium was built on the site of the old Ashburton Grove waste transfer station in north London and cost £390 million to construct. Holding just over 60,000 spectators across four steeply raked tiers, it regularly generates some of the loudest atmospheres in European club football and offers unobstructed sightlines from every seat. The stadium also hosts major concerts and events throughout the year, making it one of the most versatile venues in the country.
