Architects Release New Renderings of Birmingham City's Forthcoming Stadium 

Birmingham City have revealed new images of their planned 62,000-seater stadium.

The stadium was announced during a launch event on Thursday and is to be developed by Heatherwick Studio and MANICA Architecture.

It is set to be the centre-piece of the Sports Quarter project that the club's chairman and co-owner Tom Wagner is leading - which will also incorporate a women's stadium and other entertainment venues - and will cost approximately £1.2 billion.

“We could not be more excited to share this incredible design with so many people who played an important role in making it a reality,” Wagner said following the reveal.

An announcement video was released as part of the launch which included former player Jude Bellingham, as well as fellow co-owner Tom Brady, who stated that NFL matches would also take place at the stadium in the future.
