Anfield unveiled: Exclusive new photos and video showcase the completed marvel
Liverpool fans, get ready to be amazed! A captivating video has emerged, offering an exciting glimpse into the upcoming expansion of Anfield’s renowned Anfield Road Stand, set to be completed later this summer. This exclusive footage, obtained by This Is Anfield, showcases the remarkable changes and impressive features that await the stadium, as it prepares to welcome a staggering 61,000 passionate supporters.
After nearly two years of development, the final design, which was previously only visualized through renders, can now be witnessed in stunning clarity. The video highlights some exciting updates, giving fans a taste of what to expect.
The exterior of the stand stands proudly in the spotlight, with striking entrances to the new undercover fan zone nestled beneath the expansive structure. This fan zone promises an unforgettable experience, offering entertainment, musical acts, and a variety of delectable food outlets.
The new stand, boasting an impressive capacity of around 16,000 supporters, has been thoughtfully designed to enhance the matchday experience for fans. Expect improved facilities and expanded concourses for those in the lower tier, ensuring ultimate comfort and convenience.
Stairways to the stands, reminiscent of the elegance of the Main Stand, have also been revealed, showcasing a seamless integration of architectural styles.
Beyond the stadium’s walls, Anfield Road will be closed off on matchdays, providing fans with additional access walkways that connect the stadium to the picturesque Stanley Park. For visiting fans, more turnstiles have been introduced, located in the same area as before.
A charming new square will grace the area outside the legendary Shankly Gates, adorned with the names of loyal supporters on engraved ‘Anfield Forever’ stones, further immortalizing their unwavering devotion.
Once inside the stadium, the breathtaking view from the newly expanded stand captures the sheer beauty of the Kop, promising unobstructed views that will leave spectators in awe.
With Liverpool’s first home game of the season against Bournemouth scheduled for August 19, anticipation is at an all-time high. However, to ensure a seamless experience, the club has temporarily postponed the members ticket sale until the licensing certificate is granted by the Liverpool City Council after a series of test events.
As the countdown to the grand unveiling continues, Liverpool fans worldwide eagerly await the day they can experience the splendor of the expanded Anfield Road Stand. Get ready for an unforgettable journey as the iconic stadium takes on a new dimension, adding another glorious chapter to the storied history of Liverpool Football Club.
