Live: Birmingham City announce grand plans for new 62,000 capacity stadium as part of £3bn Sports Quarter project
Birmingham City are set to reveal plans for the new stadium as part of the club's £3bn Sports Quarter project.
The design for the proposed new Birmingham City FC stadium will be unveiled this afternoon (Thursday, November 20) at an event in the city centre.
Owners Knighthead took over the club in 2023 and announced their intentions to move the club out of their long-term home St Andrews, and into a state-of-the-art new stadium within a Sports Quarter inspired by Manchester City's Etihad Campus.
Since purchasing a 48-acre site formerly known as Birmingham Wheels in April 2024 Knighthead have expanded their ownership of land in the area, and it is believed that the new Sports Quarter will be set across more than 130 acres of land.
Birmingham City chairman and Knighthead founder Tom Wagner will be joined by Blues-supporting film director Steven Knight, who has been part of the design committee, and Heatherwick Studio architect Eliot Postma for the grand unveiling.
