Villa Park
Home of Aston Villa and one of England's oldest large football stadiums, with Premier League matches and stadium tours on offer.
Villa Park has been the home of Aston Villa since 1897 and holds about 42,000 spectators. It hosted matches in the 1966 World Cup and several FA Cup semi-finals, and the red-brick facade of the Holte End stand is an iconic landmark. Premier League match tickets are in high demand and members get priority access. On non-match days you can book an approximately 90-minute stadium tour that takes you into the dressing rooms and players' tunnel. It sits right next to Aston Hall, and from New Street station you can take a train to Witton station and walk about 5 minutes.
