The Emirates, located on Ashburton Grove in Holloway, north London, has been home to Arsenal Football Club since their move from Highbury in 2006.

The stadium is a four-tiered bowl with an all-seated capacity of 60,355, making it the second largest stadium in the Premier League after Old Trafford.

During the planning and construction stages, it was known as Ashburton Grove before a naming rights deal was struck with the airline Emirates in October 2006.

The stadium was designed by architects HOK Sport and built by Sir Robert McAlpine at a cost of 430 million pounds.
