Pirelli Stadium, Association football stadium in Burton upon Trent, England.
The Pirelli Stadium is a football ground in Burton upon Trent with four stands designed to hold thousands of spectators. The South Stand offers seating, while other sections provide standing room for different groups of supporters.
The stadium opened in 2005 after Pirelli UK Tyres donated their sports ground and agreed to naming rights. This move allowed the football club to establish a modern home venue in the town.
This is the home of Burton Albion, where local supporters gather regularly for matches. The club connects the town's residents through shared passion for the sport on match days.
The ground offers parking for several hundred vehicles and has clearly marked sections for home and away supporters. Arriving early helps you find convenient parking and avoid crowded conditions before kickoff.
The stadium was designed by architects Hadfield, Cawkwell and Davidson, and their layout became a template for other football grounds. Their design proved so practical that it influenced how later stadiums were built.
