Sheffield United FC is aiming to start construction work on the redevelopment of their historic Bramall Lane ground very shortly.
Development involves an extension to the Kop Stand. This will add an extra 3215 seats as well as new hospitality, conference and exhibition space.
Bramall Lane is the oldest major league ground in the world, having hosted its first game in 1862.
Existing event facilities at Bramall Lane include five main suites, with the Platinum Suite seating up to 300 delegates for a theatre style meeting, plus 29 well-equipped private boxes. The Copthorne Hotel Sheffield is situated adjacent to the stadium with 158 bedrooms and three flexible, multi-functional suites accommodating up to 400 guests.
The Bramall Lane stadium has plenty of on-site parking. It is around one mile from Sheffield station in the city centre.
