KSS to lead renovation work at Amex Stadium

Design firm KSS is to carry out a range of improvements at Amex Stadium, home of newly-promoted English Premier League football club Brighton and Hove Albion, over the summer.

Brighton announced earlier this month that the stadium would undergo a £5m (€5.8m/$6.5m) renovation project in the coming months to prepare the club for top-flight football.

As architects and designers of the 30,000-capacity stadium, KSS will play a leading role in the redevelopment work.

Improvements to the stadium will include the installation of a new LED lighting system, along with a new TV gantry, and a TV studio and hospitality area in the south-east corner.

Additionally, six interview areas will now be provided for UK and global broadcasters, while the post-match press conference area will also be upgraded. Players and managers will benefit from upgraded lounges for their families and guests, while fans can look forward to a new match-day restaurant in the East Stand.
