New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

If You Know Your History said:
Is it the case that our stunning new home's capacity will be increased to 57,000 ahead of the Euros? Various relatives of mine who are members haven't been able to get tickets for league games.

As magnificent a stadium as our new home on the banks of the Royal Blue Mersey is, it's always been clear to me that 52k/53k just wasn't enough. Even Birmingham City is going for a 60k capacity.

Doesn't matter what Birminghams capacity will be when they cannot fill it..... could be 100k and they still wont get more than 30k people in there.
 

Those that have done the stadium tour yet, what’s it like? Alls I’ve seen from pictures posted on social media is photos of from the tunnel, home changing room and South Stand concourse - is that all you see? Was thinking about getting it as a Christmas present, but if that’s all you see I’m wondering whether it’s worth waiting until they put more stuff in there (e.g. museum)

You see less than I'd like to have seen, to be honest.

Basically as you describe, plus away dressing room, media room, main players entrance, bit more concourse...

Aside from where you start in the Trinity Bar (which is publicly accessible anyway), there's no nosing in the hospitality, which I think is what a lot of people are curious about.

You also see away dressing room, media centre, get into the dugout area, viewing gallery looking out toward town and the Mersey and get the tour around the area the players come in / go out pre/post game to talk to the media.

One thing mentioned on the tour was that the stadium is shifting millimetres and that will require attention by structural engineers over time.
 
The capacity for the Euros for all the grounds will typically be lower than it is for PL because UEFA requires more advertising space, often covers front rows at the sides in banners, and specify greater separation of opposing fans. The official Euro 2028 website has capacity for Villa at 48k which assumes the expansion to 50/51k due to complete in 2027 is delivered on time. Everton, SJP, Aviva, listed at a rounded 50k each. Hampden 51k, City 58k (after expansion to 60/61k), Spurs 60k, Cardiff 73k, Wembley 86k. These are holding estimates and will be updated when detailed seating plans are agreed nearer the tournament.

As long as it doesn't end up over to Birkenhead ffs
 
Anyone got any guesses who the six major acts we have secured for next year?

Got a funky feeling Robbie Williams and Jon Bon Jovi, will be named.

I can seriously imagine us picking them, especially with their new duo song , 'we made it look easy'

It's (imo) what Everton would do
