FC Barcelona stadium developers set to begin construction this summer on Luton Town's new home
The new stadium at Power Court will have a 25,000-capacity
It's been confirmed by the club today that construction on Luton Town's 25,000-capacity stadium at Power Court will begin this summer.
It comes as the Hatters' recent run of wins has given them a chance at avoiding relegation from the Championship
The Club’s development arm, 2020 Developments, has agreed a pre-construction services partnership with Limak International, a rapidly growing company with a background of complex, global, world-class infrastructure, including the redevelopment of FC Barcelona's iconic Spotify Camp Nou.
It is intended that the new stadium will hold its first competitive game at the start of the 2028/29 season, giving supporters a state-of-the-art venue to call home.
Beyond football, the project plans for new homes, a hotel, and other infrastructure. The wider Power Court project will create more than 1,000 permanent jobs in addition to the hundreds of direct jobs created during the construction phase.
Gary Sweet, Chief Executive of Luton Town Football Club, said:
“This is a transformative opportunity for the Club, helping us realise our ambitions to be a Premier League club again one day. We are united with the supporters on the need for a new stadium to move our Luton Town forward and we are delighted to be moving into this exciting construction phase.
“Importantly, this new stadium project roots us in our community, bringing jobs and investment as part of the wider regeneration of the area. Partnering with a company of Limak’s international standing offers us a global perspective with local delivery. We will collaborate closely with them to ensure the stadium reflects the spirit and needs of the community.
“It has been a long road to this point, but we are so excited at the prospect of welcoming our supporters to Power Court in the near future and the ability to extend our support base and enhance our unique match-day experience.”
