Analysis of official government data has revealed a significant increase in the valuations of the biggest football venues in England and Wales.
Global tax firm Ryan's analysis of Valuation Office Agency (VOA) data found that the rateable values of stadiums across the top five English divisions have jumped by 25% to £111.74 million.
In the Budget last week, the Government confirmed that new business rates payments for commercial properties would be based on valuations made in 2024 and a new reduced multiplier to calculate their overall bills.
