Stadium Information

Elland Road is the football stadium of Leeds United Football Club since its foundation in 1919. Located in Beeston, Leeds, England, the stadium was inaugurated in 1897 and has witnessed numerous significant sporting events.

With a current capacity of 37,792 spectators, Elland Road is the thirteenth largest football stadium in England. The attendance record was set on March 15, 1967, when 57,892 fans attended an FA Cup match between Leeds United and Sunderland. This record was established before the stadium became an all-seater venue, in compliance with subsequent regulations.

The stadium has four main stands:

• Don Revie (North) Stand: also known as "The Kop".
• Jack Charlton (East) Stand: formerly known as "Lowfields Road Stand".
• Norman Hunter South Stand.
• John Charles (West) Stand.

Each of these stands pays tribute to iconic figures in the club's history.

In September 2024, the club announced plans to expand the stadium capacity to 53,000 seats, making it one of the largest stadiums in England. This expansion aims to address the high demand for tickets and enhance facilities for fans.

In addition to being the home of Leeds United, Elland Road has hosted prominent events such as matches in Euro 1996 and the 2015 Rugby World Cup, establishing itself as a venue of significance in both football and other sports.
