Selhurst Park has been Crystal Palace's home since 1924 and is one of the most atmospheric grounds in the Premier League, with the Holmesdale Road End regularly generating noise levels that rank among the highest in English football. Located in the London Borough of Croydon in south-east London, the stadium retains an old-fashioned intimacy with stands that press close to the pitch on all four sides. An ongoing redevelopment project aims to increase capacity and modernise the Main Stand while preserving the ground's historic character.
