Luton Town FC files planning application for 25,000-seat stadium
Luton Town Football Club has submitted plans for a new 25,000-capacity stadium at its Power Court site in Luton town centre.
The club said the application provides full details on the stadium and an updated outline submission for a hotel and music venue.
Aecom and Sisa have been appointed as the design team for the pre-planning stage of the new development.
The planning documents will be publicly available once Luton Borough Council processes the application.
Luton Town FC’s chief executive, Gary Sweet, said: “Once our lives changed 16 months ago with promotion at Wembley, concurrent to the gargantuan task of getting Kenilworth Road Premier League ready – which naturally dominated our workload for most of last year – we decided to reassemble a design team to take a fresh look at the whole Power Court project from foundations upwards.
“We hand-picked and structured an elite design team of architects, engineers and technicians who have been working with us, crafting every floor and corner of our new stadium to a detailed stage such that it can now be submitted, publicly aired and presented as a well-prepared detailed design instruction for contractors.”
The club is aiming completion of the new stadium in 2027.
