How this list is made
Ranked by the year each ground opened, earliest first. The year is the one given in that stadium’s guide, where it is listed with its source.
Grounds that opened in the same year share a position and are listed A to Z.
It covers the 3 stadiums with a guide on Travelling Fan, not every ground there is. The guides behind it were last checked against their sources in November 2026. The same figures are in the open dataset.
