Kassam Stadium, Football stadium in Littlemore, Oxford, England
Kassam Stadium is a football ground in Littlemore, Oxford, with three covered stands and seating for about 12,500 people. The building features a striking glass entrance area and an ox statue as part of its exterior design.
The stadium opened in 2001 to replace Manor Ground, where Oxford United had played for 76 years. The move marked a new chapter for the club with modern facilities and improved conditions.
The ground serves as a gathering place for Oxford United supporters and the local community, hosting regular home matches and community activities. It has become a focal point where locals come together to follow their team.
The ground offers free parking and is reasonably accessible on foot from different parts of the city. Visitors should allow time to find their designated stand and get comfortable before a match starts.
The ground has an incomplete structure as the west end lacks a stand, creating a three-sided setup. This distinctive feature gives the stadium a notable character among English football grounds.
