Anfield
Top 10 in Top 10 Biggest Stadiums In The UK
Anfield is one of the most famous football stadiums in the world. Anfield was once the home of Liverpool's city rivals Everton until a rent dispute forced them to leave to their own pitch, leaving the stadium's owner, John Houlding, without a team to play football there. As a result, Liverpool Football Club was established, eventually becoming the most successful British football club of all time.
The stadium underwent the most significant changes following the Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 football fans died as a result of police ineptitude and an unsafe football ground. As a result, the stadium had to become an all-seater stadium, with a capacity of roughly 44,000 people. The main stand was renovated in 2016, increasing the capacity of the stadium by roughly 10,000 seats.
