With a current capacity of 74,310 spectators, it is the largest club football stadium in the United Kingdom and the twelfth largest in Europe. Over the years, it has hosted notable events such as matches of the 1966 FIFA World Cup, the 1996 UEFA European Championship, the 2012 Olympic Games, and the final of the 2003 UEFA Champions League.

Among its notable features, Old Trafford has the Manchester United Museum and offers stadium tours, allowing fans to delve into the club's rich history.
