King Power Stadium (also known as the Leicester City Stadium due to UEFA sponsorship regulations) is a football stadium located in Leicester, in the East Midlands of England.
It is the home of club Leicester City.
Situated alongside the River Soar, the all-seater stadium has a capacity of 32,262.
Leicester's previous stadium was at nearby Filbert Street, less than 300 yards away from the current site.
In early 1998, plans were announced for a 40,000 all-seater stadium to be built at Bede Island South in time for the 2000–01 season, but they were abandoned on 5 January 2000.
Work on the stadium began in the summer of 2001, and by 10 October that year it was confirmed the new stadium would be ready for the 2002–03 season.
The stadium was completed on time in the summer of 2002, ready for Leicester to take up residence for the start of the 2002–03 season.
Leicester City Football Club is a professional association football club based in Leicester, in the East Midlands of England.
Leicester City have notably won one Premier League, one FA Cup, three League Cups and two FA Community Shields.
The club's 2015–16 Premier League title win attracted global attention, and they became one of seven clubs to have won the Premier League since its inception in 1992.
The club have competed in the FA Cup final five times, winning their first title in 2021.
They won the League Cup in 1964, 1997 and 2000 respectively, and were finalists in 1964–65 and 1998–99.
Leicester have also played in seven European competitions to date, notably reaching the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals in 2016–17 and the UEFA Europa Conference League semi-finals in 2021–22.
Formed in 1884 by a group of old boys of Wyggeston School as "Leicester Fosse", the club joined The Football Association in 1890.
The club's traditional home colours of royal blue shirts, white shorts and either white or blue socks have been used for the team's kits throughout most of its history.
In more recent times, the club have alternated between either white or blue shorts.
An image of a fox was first incorporated into the club crest in 1948. Since 1992, the club's badge has featured a fox's head overlaid onto a Cinquefoil.
The Cinquefoil is similar to the one used on the coat of arms of Leicester.
For the 2009–10 season, the club's 125th anniversary year, a special edition crest was worn on the home and away kits.
In 1941, the club adopted the playing of the Post Horn Galop at home matches, to signal both teams entering the pitch.
To the present day, the tune is usually played live on the pitch for the first half, while a modern version of the tune is played over the PA system for the second half.
The club's anthem is When You're Smiling, with its origin believed to date back to the late 1970's.
Despite being sung by fans at home and away matches since then, it wasn't until 2022 when the club formally began playing a version of the tune before kick-off on home matchdays.
Foxes Never Quit is the club's motto, with these words placed above the tunnel inside the stadium.
