'Modern-day Colosseum': Birmingham unveil new stadium plan
The Guardian
|November 21, 2025
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 citywide views.
The Birmingham chair, 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.”
