Tottenham Hotspur has today unveiled an array of exclusive views inside its new stadium after launching its premium suite, lounge and seat offering for the world-class venue.
Set to open in 2018, London’s largest capacity football club ground will be the most unique sports and entertainment destination in Europe.The stadium will feature a retractable grass field for Tottenham Hotspur home fixtures with an artificial surface underneath that will be multi-use and capable of hosting NFL matches, concerts and other high-profile events.
The Club aims to revolutionise the matchday experience and set a new benchmark for premium offerings in sports and entertainment venues. From its Lilywhite House headquarters, which overlooks the stadium site, the Club is providing visitors with a chance to see and experience the range of premium areas through an immersive 360-degree virtual reality experience, augmented reality iPad app and Oculus Rift tour.
The wide choice of premium suites, new style lounges and seats available include:
- The first purpose-built glass-walled Tunnel Club in the UK which will allow lounge guests to see the inner sanctum with a behind-the-scenes view of the players’ tunnel, while also enjoying the action from player-spec ‘Recaro-style’ seats, located behind the First Team technical area.
- The H Club, an exceptional Members’ Club, will offer a range of Michelin star calibre dining experiences including the opportunity to dine at the chef’s table or with Club legends on a privately hosted table.
- For those looking for something truly bespoke, Suite holders will be able to define their experience and design their private suite to their own personalised requirements. Use of these suites will not just be confined to matchdays, with all the required technology available for these spaces to be used as a London work base on non-event days.
- Contemporary Super Loges will feature for the first time in a UK stadium and are therefore expected to be extremely popular as they provide the intimacy of a private dining experience with access to a Members’ lounge bar for networking.
- Situated on level nine of the stadium, the Sky Lounge will offer a relaxed and informal experience surrounded by panoramic views both within and outside the stadium.
- Premium guests will enjoy state-of-the-art stadium seating with heated seats and USB ports for ultimate comfort and connectivity.
- The selection of dining experiences is extensive, ranging from street-food grazing to in-suite chefs and Michelin star quality dining. Dining is included as part of the membership at all levels of the Premium offering
A stadium for everyone
The new stadium will strive to deliver the ultimate occasion for every visitor as part of its commitment to delivering the best possible fan experience.
In addition, the new development will be home to what is believed to be the longest general admission bar in a UK stadium (86.8 metres) and to a wide range of regional street food concepts available to all general admission guests that will be unlike the offering at any other UK venue.
Furthermore, provision will be made for the world’s first stadium micro-brewery and in-house bakery. The brewery will allow for the production of one million pints of craft beer a year. Our new beer delivery system will also enable us to deliver up to 10,000 pints per minute. The onsite bakery will produce artisan breads and pastries for every food outlet in the stadium, ranging from general admission areas to boxes.
Atmosphere
With a capacity of more than 61,000, the Club has placed the fan experience and stadium atmosphere at the heart of its designs in collaboration with stadium architects, Populous.
A 17,000 single tier stand, the largest in the UK, will generate ‘a wall of sound’ coupled with a tight atmospheric bowl ensuring spectators are closer to the pitch than at any other comparable ground in the UK with uninterrupted views for all at every event.
The Club is also working with one of the world’s top acousticians, who also manages the acoustics of U2’s concerts, to optimise the sound within the stadium bowl and ensure the Club maintains its tradition of having one of the most atmospheric homes in British sport.
Technology
The stadium has been designed with technology within the fabric of the building enabling a truly connected experience for all visitors. Alongside the inclusion of geo-location technology, this will open up endless possibilities to enhance service and tailor experiences for each guest. Furthermore ticketless entry will ensure swift access at turnstiles and fast payment options will enhance service at refreshment kiosks.
Transforming the local area
The new stadium, visitor attractions, homes and other uses proposed for the site will support a total of 2,500 jobs in the locality – a net 1,700 directly employed at the site and with a further 800 supported through supply chain and other direct spending. In addition, the increased numbers of supporters and visitors to Tottenham will supply a further 980 jobs locally.
When complete, the development will support around 3,500 jobs with £293 million pumped into the local economy each year. That is an increase of 1,700 new jobs and £166 million local spending a year – an enormous impact for an area in real need of new jobs and more economic activity.
Daniel Levy, Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur, said:
“We believe our new stadium will redefine sports and entertainment experiences. We have travelled to some of the best venues in the world to ensure no stone is left unturned in order to deliver experiences that are unparalleled for all our visitors. It will provide the world-class facilities our players and fans deserve and bring much needed regeneration to the local area.”
