Nottingham Forest Football Club is seeking permission for a new ‘Fan Zone’ at its City Ground, in the car park to the rear of the Brian Clough Stand.
The plans include converted shipping containers, a modular unit, and mini marquees to provide a temporary Fan Zone with Food & Beverage and merchandise.
The focal point will be a Media Screen with seating, with the perimeter areas for the bar and beverage and merchandising offerings.
A design statement submitted by Benoy on behalf of the football club says: “There is a drive from the Premier League and English Football League to make football a more family friendly environment. There is also ambition by the Club to make a statement in respect of environmental sustainability which our ownership our passionate about. The Fanzone is seen as a vehicle to demonstrate this.
“The Football Club propose to change the use of a small section of their existing car park to generate greater excitement around the matchday experience with activations before and
after the game. To provide supporters with a safe environment as a starting point to help generate the atmosphere pre-game and a place to enjoy food & drink, music and activities for all.”
