Emirates Stadium now serves as the primary venue for Arsenal Women, marking a significant and innovative development.
Starting next season, the Emirates Stadium will serve as the primary venue for Arsenal Women. The club has announced that 11 matches will be held there in the 2024/25 season, including eight fixtures in the Women’s Super League (WSL) and three in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
This move makes Arsenal the first major club to predominantly host their women’s matches in their main stadium, following a season of impressive attendance figures. The six WSL matches held at the Emirates this season saw an average crowd of 52,029, with two sell-outs and three attendance records.
Arsenal’s CEO Vinai Venkatesham expressed excitement about the decision, emphasizing the club’s commitment to advancing the women’s game and ensuring its long-term success. Head coach Jonas Eidevall thanked the fans for their support and highlighted the special connection between the team and its supporters.
While most games will be played at the Emirates, some will still take place at their traditional home ground, the Mangata Pay UK Stadium (Meadow Park, Borehamwood), which also hosts Arsenal’s U21 men’s team.
