York Community Stadium, Multi-purpose sports stadium in Huntington, England.
York Community Stadium is a multi-purpose sports venue in Huntington featuring four covered stands with a capacity of 8,500 seats. The facility includes modern hospitality suites, media facilities, and integrates a swimming pool, outpatient services, and community library within the same complex.
Construction began in December 2017 following extensive planning and the venue opened in February 2021 as the new home for the city's football and rugby clubs. This replaced the previous Bootham Crescent location that had served the teams for decades.
The West Stand displays a mural featuring local landmarks like Clifford's Tower alongside celebrated athletes from the city's football and rugby teams. This artwork reflects the strong sporting heritage of the community.
The venue offers 400 car parking spaces and 355 bicycle spots for those arriving by vehicle or bike. Regular bus connections from York city center make visiting by public transport straightforward.
The stadium combines sports facilities with a public swimming pool, NHS outpatient clinic, and library all within the same building. This blend of sports and community services sets it apart from typical match venues.
