Stadium planned to feature 12 chimney-like towers
Club chair Tom Wagner sees it as ‘beacon for excellence’
Birmingham City have unveiled designs of their striking new 62,000-capacity stadium, the Birmingham City Powerhouse, which the Championship club say will open for the 2030-31 season.
The stadium, which features 12 chimney-like towers inspired by the city’s industrial heritage, will dominate the Birmingham skyline and be visible up to 40 miles away. One tower will include a lift to Birmingham’s highest bar, offering city-wide views.
The Birmingham chairman, Tom Wagner, promised a “modern-day Colosseum” and “to create something unique and distinctive in one of this country’s greatest and sometimes overlooked regions … it will be overlooked no more. Together, we’re putting this city and our club on a trajectory towards greatness”.
