Home of Arsenal football Club
Emirates Stadium is one of London’s premier football venues and the long-term home of Arsenal Football Club. Located in Holloway, North London, the stadium seats 60,000+ and is renowned for its modern design, excellent sightlines, and electric matchday atmosphere.
While primarily hosting Premier League and European football, the Emirates has also staged international matches, pre-season tournaments, and large non-football events. Its location, transport links, and surrounding fan culture make it a cornerstone of London’s live sport scene.
Opened in 2006, Emirates Stadium replaced Arsenal’s historic Highbury ground, marking a transformative moment in the club’s history. The move enabled Arsenal to significantly increase capacity, modernise facilities, and compete financially at the top level of European football.
Designed as a state-of-the-art arena, the stadium initially drew criticism for atmosphere compared to Highbury. Over time, supporter initiatives, architectural tweaks, and on-pitch success have reshaped its identity. Today, the Emirates is known for intense North London derby nights, Champions League fixtures, and title-race atmospheres.
The stadium has also hosted England internationals, UEFA Women’s Champions League matches, and major pre-season events, cementing its status beyond club football.
