Stockport County have confirmed a number of stadium developments that will be completed at Edgeley Park ahead of the 2026/27 season.

The works form part of the club’s continued commitment to improving both the supporter and broadcast experience, while ensuring Edgeley Park continues to evolve alongside the club’s ambitions on and off the pitch.

The developments include:

• Expansion of safe standing areas within the Popside
• Installation of a new home dugout
• Construction of a new TV gantry

Expanded Safe Standing

Following the successful introduction of safe standing areas in the Cheadle End and Vitality Railway End ahead of the 2025/26 season, the club will introduce an additional 210 safe standing spaces within the Popside.

The new safe standing areas will be located in:

• Block 2 – back row (32 seats)
• Block 3 – back four rows (146 seats)
• Block 4 – back row (32 seats)

The expansion follows positive feedback from supporters and will provide more fans with the opportunity to enjoy matches from designated safe standing areas while maintaining the highest safety standards.

New Dugout

A new dugout will also be installed ahead of the new campaign. The upgraded dugout will provide improved facilities for players and staff and forms part of the club’s ongoing investment in football operations at Edgeley Park.

New TV Gantry

To further enhance broadcast capabilities, a new TV gantry will be constructed during the summer. The development will support improved match coverage and production standards, ensuring Edgeley Park remains equipped to meet the evolving requirements of modern football broadcasting.

Continuing to Improve Edgeley Park

These latest developments represent another step forward in the club’s ongoing programme of investment across Edgeley Park.

Supporters affected by the safe standing and dugout changes will be contacted directly by the club with further information regarding their seats and any available options ahead of the new season.

Further details on each development will be communicated through the club’s official channels in due course.
