CGI of St James' STACK revealed during planning consultation

Newcastle United has revealed CGI images and the name of its proposed fan zone at Strawberry Place as part of a public consultation event held at St James' Park on Monday.

Designs for 'St. James' STACK, powered by Sela' were officially unveiled to members of the public, local residents and neighbouring businesses, with a mix of internal and external images displayed inside the stadium’s Magpie Suite.

This significant step in the process also gave those present an opportunity to provide face-to-face feedback to senior Newcastle United and STACK representatives as part of the formal planning process and follows a recent season ticket holder survey commissioned by the club.

If approved, the fan zone will introduce a thriving food, drink and entertainment option for supporters visiting matches at St. James' Park, as well as creating a bustling midweek leisure and social destination synonymous with the STACK brand. It will be supported by the club’s front-of shirt partner, Sela - a destination and experiences organisation.

Built using repurposed shipping containers around a central plaza and main stage area, ‘St. James’ STACK powered by Sela’ will be temporary construction that will attract people of all ages, with carefully curated events and attractions designed for families.
