Tottenham Hotspur have announced that their new stadium will officially open next month after a string of delays.

The new ground will host a Premier League match at the the beginning of April.

If Brighton win their FA Cup quarter-final match, Tottenham will play Crystal Palace on Wednesday 03 April.

If Brighton lose, the two teams will face each other at the new stadium on 06/07 April (subject to Champions League scheduling).


The club is also hosting two Test Event Matches later this month in order to achieve a formal safety certificate for fixtures to be held at the new stadium.

Around 30,000 are expected to attend a U18 Premier League against Southampton on Sunday 24 March, with a increased capacity of 45,000 planned for a Tottenham Legends match on Saturday 30 March.

Both events will see seats allocated in all stands in order to effectively test all areas.

Chairman, Daniel Levy, said: "We are delighted that we shall be able to welcome our supporters to the stadium and our players of the past and the future to take to the pitch on what will be momentous occasions for our Club.

"Please do come and see your new stadium and share these moments.

"Thank you all once again. Your support has been much appreciated during a challenging but exciting time."
