The redevelopment is anticipated to increase the stadium’s capacity from 26,000 to 34,000.

Enhanced hospitality options and accessible seating are set to be included, along with the establishment of a club museum.

Palace announced today that they are in the “final planning phase,” with “enabling works” already in progress.

This phase involves the construction of new club offices and an away dressing area beneath the Holmesdale Road stand.

The Premier League team has amended the seating arrangement, fan zone, and entrance to the stand since their last update in June.

Palace is also close to finalizing an agreement with Croydon Council regarding a “construction management plan” designed to reduce disruptions for local residents during the renovation process.

Reports suggest that the renovation project is expected to take around two-and-a-half years.

As indicated by Building Magazine, the estimated cost for the renovations has risen to £150 million.

Palace chairman Steve Parish expressed last summer a vision for the club to have “a stadium that the entire south London community can take pride in.”

He also remarked: “The project has faced some delays, but substantial work is ongoing that may not be immediately visible.

“Current undertakings involve relocating offices to unify all teams, including the Palace Foundation, constructing a marketing suite, and transforming the Holmesdale basement for temporary away dressing rooms — all critical steps.

“We must enhance the club’s revenue.

“Increasing income to compete with clubs that possess larger stadiums—like Aston Villa, Newcastle, and West Ham—is essential as many of them are also planning expansions. It’s crucial for us to stay competitive.

“It’s about making prudent long-term decisions for the club, including aiming for the best possible performance on the pitch.”
