Emirates Stadium

The Emirates Stadium, also known as Arsenal Stadium for UEFA competitions, is a football stadium in Holloway, London, with a seating capacity of 60,704 and has been the home stadium of Arsenal Football Club since 2006. It was built on a site purchased by the club in 2000, after being denied planning permission to expand its previous home stadium, Highbury. The stadium was completed in 2006 at a cost of £390 million and has undergone several renovations, including a process of "Arsenalisation" to restore visible links to the club's history. The stadium hosts international football fixtures and music events and is nicknamed "the Carpet" due to the quality of its pitch.learn more on wikipedia
