Aston Villa plan outlined to increase Villa Park stadium capacity next year
Aston Villa have confirmed to the club's Fan Advisory Board that Villa Park's capacity could rise by more than 800 seats over the course of next summer.
Seats are likely to be added to various parts of the ground which equate to as many as 800. This follows work carried out last summer in which the Holte End lower and the North Stand upper were addressed.
Senior representatives of Villa, including chief operating officer Ben Hatton, were in attendance at the latest Fan Advisory Board [minutes published by My Old Man Said], during which the club meets with selected supporters to answer questions, outline plans and take on concerns and suggestions to improve the overall experience of supporters and keep the fanbase informed of the club's intentions.

Meanwhile, The Warehouse - the new multi purpose facility at the back of the North Stand - is set to be completed by Christmas 2025, while the wheels are in motion for a new match-day ticket office, for which the process will begin next season.
Villa have also confirmed a plan to extend the North Stand Upper concourse which will 'take a few months'.
