Football Ground Guide

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium opened in 2019, giving Spurs one of the most technologically advanced and versatile sporting venues in the world.

From its £1 billion construction cost to a 17,500-seat single-tier South Stand, the north London ground has been designed to accommodate football, NFL games and major concerts.

Here, FootballGroundGuide looks at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium through the numbers that tell its story.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium by the numbers

The stadium's £1bn price tag was significantly higher than the initial estimated budget of £400m, equating to more than £15,900 per seat based on its football capacity.

The project also formed part of a wider 20-year regeneration masterplan for Tottenham.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium's records and unique features

The stadium's record football attendance stands at 62,027, set when Tottenham hosted Arsenal on 12th May 2022.

Its NFL attendance record is now 61,322, recorded when the Jacksonville Jaguars faced the Philadelphia Eagles on 11th October 2026.

For concerts, South Korean pop band BTS attracted approximately 65,000 people per show in July 2026, setting a new per-show attendance record for the venue.

The stadium also boasts the UK's largest single-tier stand, with the 17,500-seat South Stand rising more than 34 metres. Its dividing retractable pitch system allows natural grass to be replaced by a synthetic NFL surface beneath it, making the venue suitable for multiple sports.

Other notable figures include a 65-metre Goal Line Bar, described as Europe's longest stadium bar, and a 23,000-square-foot club shop, billed as Europe's largest.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ticket prices and facilities

For the latest Premier League season, published adult ticket prices ranged from around £49 to £109, depending on the fixture and seat location.

Food and drink concessions are another major feature, with more than 60 outlets throughout the stadium, 29 Tap Inn kiosks and an in-house Beavertown Brewery.

The stadium attracts nearly two million visitors annually and generates an estimated £344m boost to the local economy. It is also powered by 100% renewable electricity and operates a zero waste-to-landfill policy.

The London Stadium has appointed the architects behind Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to explore a major transformation of the surrounding site.

Populous will investigate new leisure, hospitality and entertainment opportunities designed to turn the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park venue into a stronger year-round destination.

London Stadium appoints Populous to lead transformation

Populous has been appointed Lead Consultant to develop a spatial strategy for London Stadium and the land surrounding the venue.

The study will explore a range of potential uses, including leisure and entertainment, hospitality, hotels, conferencing, food and drink and a possible secondary venue.

The plans will also consider improvements to the public realm, landscaping and connections between the stadium, its canalside setting and the wider Olympic Park.

Populous will work alongside the London Borough of Newham, commercial advisers and potential development partners to assess the business case and how any proposals could be delivered.

The project builds on feasibility work completed in 2024, with sustainability, climate resilience and inclusion among the principles guiding the study.

FGG says: Populous' proven track record makes London Stadium project intriguing

Populous is a particularly interesting choice given its track record of delivering some of the world's most recognisable sporting venues, including Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The London Stadium already has a unique position as a major multi-use venue, but this project suggests the ambition is now to make the surrounding area work harder too, rather than simply relying on major event days.

If Populous can combine the stadium's existing strengths with better leisure, hospitality and public spaces, London Stadium could become a much more complete destination in its own right.

Tottenham Hotspur will round off their 2026 pre-season schedule with a return to North London when they welcome Hoffenheim to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on August 15.

Roberto De Zerbi's side have already begun preparations for the 2026-27 campaign, starting their summer with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Auckland thanks to goals from Dane Scarlett and Richarlison.

Spurs will continue their pre-season preparations with fixtures against Sydney FC, Chelsea and Getafe before hosting Christian Ilzer's Hoffenheim side in their final friendly before the new season gets underway.

The German outfit, meanwhile, are already well into their summer schedule and have enjoyed a perfect start, winning all three of their opening friendlies, including an emphatic 21-0 victory over SV Massenbachhausen.

If you are planning on attending Tottenham vs. Hoffenheim at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, here is everything you need to know about tickets, including prices and how to secure your seat.

Tottenham vs. Hoffenheim: match details

Tottenham's pre-season friendly against Hoffenheim will take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, August 15, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 15:00 BST.

The fixture will be Spurs' only open-door pre-season match at their home stadium this summer, although the two sides will meet again the following day in a behind-closed-doors fixture at Tottenham's Training Centre.

The match will also mark the first meeting between the two clubs since Tottenham's memorable Europa League campaign in January 2025, when Spurs secured a 3-2 victory away from home in Germany.

James Maddison and a Heung-Min Son brace helped the Lilywhites claim all three points on that occasion.

How to get tickets for Tottenham vs. Hoffenheim

Tickets for Tottenham's friendly against Hoffenheim are now available on general sale and can be purchased through the club's official ticketing channels.

Season Ticket Holders and One Hotspur Members were initially given priority access before the club opened sales to the wider public.

Supporters looking to attend the fixture can now secure tickets directly, with prices starting from:

Adults – £20

Children £5

With the fixture taking place just one week before Tottenham begin their Premier League campaign, it provides supporters with the opportunity to see De Zerbi's squad in action at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before competitive football returns.

Tottenham Hotspur take their preparations for the 2026-27 Premier League campaign to New Zealand on July 26, when they will face off against Auckland FC at Eden Park in Auckland.

With the game kicking off at 3.30pm local time, supporters of Spurs on the other side of the globe will be afforded a rare opportunity to watch their heroes in the flesh, opposed to their usual schedules of staying up late to watch the games on TV.

This is only the second time the Lilywhites have played a match in New Zealand and the first in 50 years after a trip in 1976, when the North London giants won back-to-back matches against local Auckland and Wellington XIs.

Heading to the match on July 26? Here, FootballGroundGuide provides a guide on transportation to Eden Park for the highly-anticipated pre-season friendly.

Driving to Eden Park for Tottenham vs. Auckland

Located three kilometres southwest of the Auckland Central Business District (CBD), Eden Park has great transport links for supporters attending the friendly match later this month, offering different ways to reach the venue.

Driving from the airport: With Auckland airport sat on the southern reaches of the city, expect the drive to Eden Park to take around 30 minutes accounting for traffic, starting on the 20A motorway before moving onto the 20A, before a straight run up Sandringham Road to the stadium.

Driving from city centre: A simple 10-minute journey awaits if you are travelling by car from the city centre to Eden Park, with the quickest route going through Grafton, Eden Terrace and Kingsland via New North Road.

How to get to Eden Park using public transport

Eden Park is well-served by the railway system in Auckland, with the Kingsland Station sitting right next to the stadium, reducing the journey to an easy walk once they have gotten off the train service.

Like in the United Kingdom, you can tap and go with your credit and debit card – as well as smartphone – on all trains and buses.

There is also the option to pay with cash on the trains, however, you should expect to pay slightly more than the card method.

Walking to Eden Park

Walking to Eden Park from Auckland City Centre takes about an hour, with the trek taking you on a road perpendicular to the 1 and 16 motorways that run through the very heart of the central area.

The journey would take you through Newton and past ABA Stadium, Auckland's primary venue for combat sports, hosting over 150 boxing events over the course of history.

Tottenham Hotspur are looking to take another step towards making their world-class stadium even more self-sufficient after submitting fresh plans to install thousands of solar panels on the roof.

The proposal is the latest example of Spurs continuing to maximise the commercial potential of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, both on and off the pitch.

Spurs submit plans to install solar panels at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Spurs have submitted plans to Haringey Council to install around 3,800 solar panels on the roof of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in a move designed to reduce energy costs and improve the venue's environmental credentials.

If approved, construction is expected to begin in September 2026 before being completed by December.

The electricity generated would help power the stadium's day-to-day operations, including Premier League matches, NFL fixtures, concerts, hospitality areas, catering facilities, lighting and other major events hosted throughout the year.

Rather than generating additional revenue directly, the project is expected to reduce reliance on the National Grid and significantly lower the stadium's running costs over the long term.

Tottenham have already transformed the financial landscape of the club through the multi-purpose design of their 62,850-capacity home, with concerts, NFL games and other major events becoming a key source of commercial income since the stadium opened.

The solar panel project represents the latest phase of that long-term strategy, with savings on energy bills potentially freeing up additional resources elsewhere.

Comparable schemes have already proven successful elsewhere. West Ham's London Stadium has previously been estimated to save up to £350,000 per year through its own rooftop solar installation.

FGG says: Spurs continue to show why their stadium is the envy of European football

Installing thousands of solar panels may not grab headlines in the same way as a blockbuster signing, but it is exactly the sort of ‘masterstroke' decision that has made Tottenham Hotspur Stadium one of the smartest stadium projects in world football.

Every pound saved on operating costs can be reinvested elsewhere, while improving sustainability is another welcome bonus. Combined with the vast income already generated through concerts, NFL games and other major events, it is another example of Spurs continuing to maximise the earning power of one of Europe's premier sporting venues.

The home of Tottenham Hotspur is preparing to welcome another global superstar, with Jay-Z set to perform at the north London venue in September.

The concert will add to Spurs' rapidly growing non-football events business, which could now be generating more than £100 million in annual revenue for the club.

Tottenham set to make over £100m from latest superstar concert

Spurs do not disclose exactly how much money individual concerts generate at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but the financial impact of their multi-purpose stadium has become increasingly clear.

Research from Goldman Sachs estimated that Spurs generated around £55m from non-football events during the 2023/24 season, including concerts, NFL games and other major occasions.

Since then, the north London outfit have received permission to almost double the number of major non-football events they can stage each year, increasing the limit from 16 to 30.

Based on the previous revenue estimate and applying the increase on a proportional basis, finance expert Adam Williams believes Spurs could now generate more than £100 million annually from events at the stadium.

That figure would not represent pure profit, with the club responsible for costs including utilities, security and stewarding.

For concerts such as Jay-Z's upcoming show, promoters pay a fee to hire the stadium, while Spurs can also earn additional revenue from food, drink and other spending inside the ground.

The club have previously indicated that a sold-out concert can generate a seven-figure return, underlining why securing the world's biggest artists has become such an important part of the stadium's business model.

FGG says: These events are powering Spurs' spending potential

This is exactly why Tottenham invested so heavily in building a genuinely multi-purpose stadium rather than simply a new home for the football team.

Concerts from global stars such as Jay-Z, alongside NFL fixtures and other major events, are creating revenue streams that most Premier League clubs simply cannot match.

That financial strength is increasingly visible in the transfer market, with Spurs able to spend heavily this summer thanks in no small part to the money generated by their world-class stadium.

Tottenham Hotspur are carrying out a detailed investigation into both the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium pitch and the club's training ground surfaces as part of a wider effort to understand the injury problems that disrupted their season.

After a relegation-threatened campaign heavily affected by player absences, Spurs are now examining multiple areas across the club's football operation in an attempt to understand why injuries continued to mount and how those issues can be reduced moving forward.

Why are Tottenham looking at the stadium and training ground pitches?

Tottenham have launched extensive testing of playing surfaces at both the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the club's training ground as part of a larger review into the team's injury record.

The club endured another season heavily impacted by injuries, with key players including Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert and James Maddison suffering anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, while Dejan Kulusevski also missed significant action after knee problems.

Performance director Dan Lewindon, who joined from City Football Group, has been leading the review process aimed at identifying areas requiring improvement.

Initial findings are understood to have found little difference between the playing characteristics of the stadium pitch and the training ground surfaces, including how the turf behaves and responds, per the Daily Mail.

However, Tottenham are now working with an external partner to conduct a much more detailed investigation involving wider testing across both locations.

The pitch analysis forms only one part of a broader operation.

The club are also reportedly examining training methods, communication between coaching and medical departments, player rehabilitation processes and squad management structures.

Fresh measures are expected to include smaller player ‘pods' with dedicated support teams consisting of physiotherapists, sports science staff and strength and conditioning specialists.

Managerial instability has also reportedly been identified as a possible contributing factor after Spurs changed managers multiple times during the season, potentially exposing players to differing training methods and tactical demands.

Concerns over reinjuries have also become an area of focus, with the club seeking closer alignment between coaching staff and medical departments moving forward.

FGG says: Looking beyond the obvious may be the right approach

When injury problems reach the level Tottenham experienced, attention naturally turns towards visible factors like pitches and training surfaces.

But the early findings here suggest the answer may be more complicated than simply blaming the grass.

What stands out is the extent of the review – rather than isolating one issue, Spurs are examining everything, ranging from workload management, communication pathways, recovery protocols, to the overall structure of how player care is coordinated.

If the club can identify a cluster of smaller contributing factors, instead of chasing one definitive explanation, the investigation could ultimately prove more valuable.

A holistic diagnosis offers the chance for meaningful, lasting improvement, rather than a quick fix like relaying a surface or tweaking a training drill.

With Tottenham Hotspur still fighting to preserve their Premier League status, the club have made a late attempt to spark an improvement in home performances by making changes to the players’ tunnel at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

With Spurs still battling to preserve their Premier League status, the club have made a late attempt to spark improvement at home by making changes to the players’ tunnel at their home ground in a bid to inspire better performances, with only Burnley having collected fewer home points than them this season.

Lack of home wins big reason for Tottenham's league troubles

It is approaching one year since Tottenham finally ended their long wait for silverware by beating Manchester United 1-0 in Bilbao to lift the Europa League trophy.

It is hard to believe just how dramatically Spurs have declined since that night, with the club now battling to avoid relegation only 12 months later.

Since then, Tottenham have dismissed the manager who delivered that success and moved on from two further head coaches, while their disastrous home form has played a major role in their struggles and their fight to preserve their Premier League status.

The Lilywhites have not won a Premier League game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium since a 2-0 victory over Brentford on December 6 and are running out of time to turn things around.

Although Tottenham head into the Chelsea clash unbeaten in their last four league matches, their inability to hold onto leads at home continues to cost them, with both Brighton and Leeds coming from behind in recent weeks to leave N17 with draws.

As part of an effort to try and shift momentum and improve their fortunes at home, the club have made changes around the players’ tunnel area at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Supporters may already have noticed these subtle alterations between Tottenham’s last two home fixtures.

Above the tunnel now sits the phrase ‘All Together Always' painted in gold, a slogan frequently used by captain Cristian Romero across his social media channels.

Alongside the message are new images showing players celebrating with supporters, further reinforcing the club’s attempt to reconnect the squad and fanbase during a difficult period.

The slogan was also displayed across the electronic advertising boards around the stadium ahead of Monday night’s clash against Leeds United.

FGG Says: Tottenham need to act fast to improve their home form and performances before it's too late

Already relegated Burnley are the only side with a worse home record than the current Europa League holders, highlighting an issue Spurs must address if they avoid dropping into the Championship.

The tunnel additions did not inspire Tottenham to end their lengthy wait for a home victory, but recent performances have at least offered some encouragement that a long-overdue win in N17 may not be far away.

Getting Tottenham Hotspur tickets isn’t easy, particularly for the biggest Premier League and European nights at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Demand for Spurs tickets remains extremely high, with most fixtures selling out long before general sale. However, there are still several ways for supporters to secure seats, whether through memberships, season tickets, ticket exchange or hospitality packages.

FootballGroundGuide provides everything you need to know about buying Tottenham tickets in 2026.

Where can I buy Tottenham tickets?

Tottenham tickets are sold exclusively through the club’s official ticketing channels.

Supporters can purchase tickets through:

Tottenham Hotspur’s official ticketing website

One Hotspur membership sales windows

Ticket Exchange for sold-out matches

Ticket Transfer from season ticket holders

The Ticket Exchange allows season ticket holders to resell seats they can’t use, while Ticket Transfer lets supporters send tickets directly to friends or family members.

Third-party resale websites are not officially authorised by the club and often charge significantly inflated prices.

Tottenham season tickets

The only guaranteed way to attend every Premier League home game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is with a season ticket.

Tottenham have confirmed there will be no increase in season ticket prices for the 2026/27 season, marking a second consecutive price freeze across both men’s and women’s football.

For the 2025/26 season, general admission season tickets were priced at a flat rate of £856.

Season tickets include:

All 19 Premier League home matches

Access to Ticket Exchange and Ticket Transfer

Priority access for cup and European fixtures

Cup matches are not included unless supporters join the Automatic Cup Ticket Scheme.

Tottenham season ticket waiting list

Demand for season tickets remains extremely high, with places on the waiting list reserved exclusively for One Hotspur+ members.

Existing season ticket holders are given priority to renew every summer before any additional seats become available.

Tottenham memberships

Official Tottenham Hotspur memberships remain the most reliable route for casual supporters to secure match tickets, and Spurs currently offer two core adult membership options.

The standard One Hotspur membership starts from £45 and provides priority access to home match tickets, along with use of the club’s Ticket Exchange and Ticket Transfer systems. Members also receive a retail voucher and a discount for SPURSPLAY, the club’s streaming service.

For supporters who want an even better chance of securing seats, One Hotspur+ is available from £55. This tier includes everything offered to One Hotspur members but adds an additional 24‑hour priority window for ticket sales. Crucially, it also grants access to the club’s season ticket waiting list — something not available at the standard level.

Junior memberships are also offered and come with their own set of benefits, including ticket priority, entry into the official matchday mascot ballot, and exclusive Spurs goody packs designed for younger fans.

Memberships for the 2025/26 season are currently off sale, but supporters can register their interest ahead of the next membership cycle.

Tottenham membership vs season ticket

If you can’t secure a season ticket, becoming a One Hotspur member is the next best option.

Membership gives supporters:

Priority ticket access

Access to Ticket Exchange

Ticket Transfer access

Eligibility for the season ticket waiting list (One Hotspur+)

Discounts and club benefits

Season tickets remain the best option for regular matchgoers attending every home fixture, while memberships are better suited to fans attending several matches each season.

Tottenham ticket prices for individual games

Tottenham categorise fixtures based on demand, with prices varying depending on the opposition, competition and seat location.

For the 2025/26 season, Tottenham ticket prices started from around £49.

Prices vary depending on:

Match category (A, B or C)

Seat location within the stadium

Premier League, domestic cup or European competition

Most expensive seats at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

The most expensive non-hospitality seats are usually located in:

West Stand longside seats

East Stand halfway-line areas

Premium padded seating sections

Many of these seats are also sold as hospitality packages.

Cheapest Tottenham tickets

The cheapest Tottenham tickets are typically found in:

North Stand upper tier

South Stand upper tier

Prices in these areas generally start from around £49 for lower-demand fixtures.

How to buy individual Tottenham tickets

Although not essential, memberships dramatically improve your chances of getting tickets before matches sell out.

Fixtures go on sale in stages throughout the season, with One Hotspur+ members receiving access before standard One Hotspur members and general sale supporters.

Demand for major fixtures can be huge, so supporters are usually placed into an online queue when sales open.

Tickets are delivered digitally through supporters’ online accounts once payment has been completed.

Many Premier League fixtures never reach general sale due to demand from members.

Tottenham away tickets

Away tickets for Tottenham matches are allocated based on loyalty points and supporter status.

Priority typically works as follows:

Season ticket holders

One Hotspur+ members

One Hotspur members

Supporters build loyalty points by attending previous away and cup matches.

Premier League away allocations are usually around 3,000 tickets, although this varies depending on the stadium and competition.

Because demand far outweighs supply, supporters with strong loyalty point totals are significantly more likely to secure tickets for high-profile away games.

Tottenham disabled tickets and accessible seating

Tottenham operate a Disability Access Scheme to support supporters with accessibility requirements.

Accessible ticketing options include:

Wheelchair bays

Easy-access seating

Complimentary personal assistant tickets

Dedicated ticketing windows

The club also offers accessibility support for transport and matchday facilities around the stadium.

Supporters must register with the club’s Disability Access Scheme before purchasing accessible tickets.

Hospitality tickets at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Hospitality remains one of the easiest ways to secure seats for high-demand Tottenham fixtures.

Popular hospitality options include:

Premium Club Seats

Located along the East and West touchlines, these packages include:

Premium padded seating

Lounge access

Complimentary food and drinks

Matchday programme

Appearances from Spurs legends

The Locker Room

Located in Block 119, The Locker Room package includes:

Bowl food

Open bar

DJ and pre-match entertainment

Premium lounge access

Hospitality packages for 2026 fixtures generally start from around £145 + VAT.

Tottenham ticket prices frozen for 2026/27

Tottenham have confirmed there will be no increase in either season ticket or matchday ticket prices for the 2026/27 season.

The club have also introduced several new concessions aimed at younger supporters, including:

Junior concession tickets at 50% of adult prices in most stadium areas

Expanded Young Adult discounts for supporters aged 18-25

Additional concession availability across the stadium

Spurs have also reduced the number of Category A fixtures for 2026/27, with Newcastle United moving down to Category B pricing.

FGG Verdict: Are Tottenham tickets hard to get?

Tottenham tickets remain among the most in-demand in the Premier League, especially since the opening of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

For regular supporters, a One Hotspur membership is almost essential, while season tickets remain extremely difficult to secure due to demand and waiting lists.

Casual fans still have opportunities through the ticket exchange, general sale fixtures, hospitality packages and cup matches.

However, for the biggest Premier League and European nights in north London, planning ahead and joining the membership scheme gives supporters the best possible chance of securing tickets.

Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi has dismissed suggestions that the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium atmosphere is contributing to the club’s poor home form this season.

Tottenham have struggled badly in north London during the current campaign, but the Italian insists the stadium remains one of the best environments in the Premier League and believes supporters have continued to back the team strongly.

Roberto De Zerbi gives Tottenham Hotspur Stadium verdict amid home form struggles

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Roberto De Zerbi has rejected claims that the club’s modern stadium or atmosphere is playing a role in Spurs’ disappointing home record this season.

Despite improving survival hopes with consecutive away victories, Tottenham remain without a Premier League home win since December 6th, and have managed only two league victories at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium all campaign.

When asked whether the stadium environment might actually be hurting the team, De Zerbi strongly disagreed and praised the atmosphere created by supporters in N17.

He said, via the Independent: “Tottenham’s stadium is hot. When I was in this stadium with Brighton, on the bench of Brighton, or against Brighton two weeks ago, the stadium was very, very hot.

“And for us, we are lucky to play in this stadium.

“The atmosphere against Brighton was amazing. The bottom of the table, 60,000 fans to support you, to push you, to stay before the game, during the game, after the game, we have been very close with the fans, and I think it’s luck for us.”

De Zerbi also pointed towards Tottenham’s impressive home form in Europe as evidence that their league struggles at home are more of an anomaly than a deeper issue with the stadium atmosphere itself.

FGG says: Stadium not the issue but Spurs fans' frustration understandable

There is no doubt Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is one of the best venues in world football, and De Zerbi is far from the first manager or player to rave about the atmosphere it can generate in big games.

But at the same time, Spurs supporters are perfectly entitled to feel frustrated given how poor their season has been, especially at home in the league.

What matters for De Zerbi is that, despite the results, the fans have largely stuck with the team since he arrived. That backing hasn’t gone unnoticed, and it could still play a huge part in the run‑in.
