The Pep Guardiola Stand was complete ahead of the end of the 2025/26 football season, with the hotel, workspace, and public realm works—including City Square—set to be delivered by late 2026.

Above the upper tier, there will be a sky bar with views overlooking the pitch, as well as a stadium roof walk experience.

A covered City Square fan zone with capacity for 3,000 people, featuring a variety of food and drink outlets, will be constructed alongside a new club shop, museum, workspace, and a 400-bed hotel as part of the Club’s wider development.
