Ed Dalton, Director of Infrastructure and Development, is back inside the Etihad Stadium where the new North Stand roof is being constructed.
He explains what has happened since the last home game of the season, and what’s to come before football returns in August.
As part of the development, the Club is expanding stadium capacity to over 60,000 as well as developing a new fanzone, museum, City Store, 401-bed hotel and a range of food and beverage outlets.
The North Stand itself will open during the 2025/26 football season, with the hotel, workspace and public realm works including City Square, opening in late 2026.
Once completed, the new facilities will sit alongside the 23,500 Co-op Live Arena – a joint venture between City Football Group and Oak View Group - within a wider entertainment destination that our fans, the people of Manchester and the rest of the world can visit and enjoy.
