Stadium Information

The City Ground is the football stadium of Nottingham Forest FC, located in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire, England, on the banks of the River Trent. Opened on September 3, 1898, it currently has a capacity of 30,455 spectators. 

This stadium has witnessed historic moments, including its role as a venue during the 1996 European Championship, where it hosted three group stage matches. In addition, its proximity to Meadow Lane, the stadium of Notts County FC, located on the other side of the River Trent, is notable as both stadiums are separated by just 300 meters, making them the two closest professional stadiums in England. 

Nottingham Forest FC has announced plans for a major stadium redevelopment. This includes the demolition of the Peter Taylor Stand and the construction of a new two-tier structure, which would increase the total capacity of the stadium to 38,000 spectators. Additionally, there are plans to incorporate a museum showcasing the club's European triumphs and the installation of solar panels to promote energy sustainability on match days.
