History

About Anfield

Anfield opened in 1884 as Everton’s home. Everton moved to Goodison Park in 1892, and John Houlding founded Liverpool FC at Anfield that year. The Kop terrace followed in 1906. More recent changes include the Main Stand redevelopment in 2016 and the phased opening of the expanded Anfield Road Stand in 2023/24; Liverpool confirmed a capacity of 61,276 ahead of 2024/25.

Seating layout

Anfield seating plan & capacity

Anfield's seating bowl is asymmetric. The four stands all differ in height and design, reflecting decades of staggered redevelopment. The Kop's height limits the natural light reaching the pitch surface, which is why the floodlights at Anfield are unusually high-power.

• The Kop

  Single-tier stand behind the goal at the Kop (Walton Breck Road) end of the ground. Holds approximately 12,390 supporters and is the most iconic terrace in English football. The Kop is the spiritual home of Liverpool's most vocal support.

• Main Stand

  Three-tier stand along the west touchline, opposite the Sir Kenny Dalglish Stand. Redeveloped in 2016, it includes hospitality, the dugouts and players’ tunnel.

• Anfield Road End

  The two-tier end behind the north goal, expanded through a phased opening in 2023/24. Visiting supporters use designated lower-tier blocks; other sections are home seating.

• Sir Kenny Dalglish Stand

  Two-tier side stand opposite the Main Stand. Renamed from the Centenary Stand in 2017 to honour the former player and manager.
