Spurs Receives Planning Permission To Hold More Major Non‑Football Events At Stadium

Tottenham Hotspur Football Club Stadium as seen at at night Tottenham Hotspur Football Club has been granted planning permission to allow up to 30 major non‑football events at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium per calendar year, subject to a S106 agreement.

The decision by Haringey Council enables the Stadium to host up to 30 major non‑football events per year, including concerts, rugby, boxing and NFL.

It follows an extensive consultation carried out by the Club with local residents and businesses. As part of the application, the Club made a series of commitments in response to resident and business feedback.

The Club will maintain its hugely popular community ticket scheme, ensuring local residents and community organisations continue to have the opportunity to experience events at the Stadium through the provision of complimentary tickets.

A 24hr priority ticketing window will also be introduced for concerts, ensuring local residents are at the front of the queue to see world‑class acts perform on their doorstep.

Since opening in 2019, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has been a catalyst in turning Tottenham into a thriving, new sport, leisure and entertainment destination in London.

In addition to being the world‑famous home of Tottenham Hotspur, the Stadium is the official home of the NFL in the UK, having hosted eight regular season games to date as part of a long‑term partnership through 2029‑30. It has also staged European and domestic rugby finals, world heavyweight championship boxing and some of the world’s best‑known performing artists, including global superstars Beyonce, Lady Gaga, P!NK and Travis Scott.

On a daily basis, the stadium brings visitors to the area through attractions including Stadium Tours, the Dare Skywalk and F1 DRIVE – London – the world’s first in‑stadium karting experience, delivered in partnership with Formula 1.



The Club has said it is looking forward to welcoming visitors from across the world to a range of exciting events at the Stadium for many more years to come and thanks Haringey Council for its support. 2027 sees Haringey become the London Borough of Culture and the stadium has been named as a host venue for UEFA EURO 2028.

A recent study by EY found that, through increased events and activities at its stadium, the Club contributes around £900m of gross output to London's economy, generating an additional £478m of GVA in London.

The report also highlighted a contribution of:

  • £344m GVA (£296m in Haringey specifically) to the tri‑Borough area of Haringey, Enfield and Waltham Forest, in comparison to the £120m GVA per annum being generated in 2015 while the Club was still based at its old White Hart Lane stadium
  • An estimation that the Club’s socio‑economic impact will continue to grow in the years to come, with an estimated £585m GVA and 4,300 jobs expected to be supported during the 2026/27 season
  • 3,700 FTE (full‑time equivalent) jobs supported - 2,800 in Haringey specifically - inclusive of 1,800 directly employed by the Club, 1,600 supported through supply chains and a further 300 as a result of induced effects – in comparison to the total 1,800 jobs supported in 2015

The staging of major non‑football events throughout the year also creates additional recurring sources of revenue for the Club to reinvest in its football activities - a key part of the Club’s financial model.
