Elland Road is the home stadium of the football team Leeds United. It has recently been sold by the club in a 25-year sale-lease back deal with a commercial buy-back provision for when the club’s finances improve.

The most recent stand at Elland Road is the East Stand, a huge cantilever structure which was completed during the 1992-93 season and holds 17,000 seated spectators, the largest such cantilever in the world. The Don Revie Stand (also known as the Kop terrace) was opened at the start of the 1994-95 season, holding just under 7,000 seated spectators, after a refurbishment scheme. It was named after Don Revie, the club's most successful manager of all time. The South Stand (previously known as the 'scratching shed') was built in 1971 and until 1993 the lower tier accommodated standing spectators, but this section of terracing was replaced by seating to comply with the requirements of the Taylor Report.

Capacity: 40,000 seats

Inauguration: 1904
