Opened: 1884
Location: Anfield, Liverpool
Anfield, opened in 1884, has been the home of Liverpool FC since the club’s formation in 1892. With a capacity of 61,276, it is one of the most iconic football stadiums in the world. The famous Kop, in particular, has long been revered for its noise and passion, creating an atmosphere that inspires the home side and unsettles opponents—especially when “You’ll Never Walk Alone” echoes across the stands.
Over the decades, Anfield has hosted countless historic nights, from Liverpool’s European triumphs to unforgettable Premier League battles. While the stadium has undergone significant redevelopments, including the Main Stand expansion and the new Anfield Road Stand, it has retained its soul and connection with the community, remaining a fortress steeped in tradition.
