Experience the passion of one of England's founding clubs. Secure your tickets to see Everton FC in their stunning new home and be part of an unmatched football tradition.
Goodison Park, a name that resonates with history and tradition in English football, stands in Walton, Liverpool, as an emblem of the sport. Opened on August 24, 1892, this stadium, nicknamed 'The Grand Old Lady', was the first major football stadium built in England. For 133 years it was the home of Everton FC, and from the 2025-2026 season, it will begin an exciting new chapter as the permanent home of Everton Women, becoming the largest dedicated women's football stadium in the UK. Its current all-seated capacity is 39,414, and it has hosted more top-flight games than any other stadium in England, as well as being a venue for a 1966 World Cup semi-final.
With a history stretching back to 1878, Everton FC is not just a football club; it's a pillar of the Liverpool community and one of the founding entities of professional football in England. Originally named St. Domingo's FC, the club adopted the Everton name a year later and became a founding member of the Football League in 1888.
The 'Toffees' have enjoyed golden eras, such as the 1930s with the legendary Dixie Dean, who set the still-standing record of 60 goals in a single league season. Another highly successful era arrived in the 1980s under manager Howard Kendall, yielding two league titles, an FA Cup, and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1985, their sole continental trophy to date. The club holds the distinction of having played more seasons in the English top flight than any other.
Their motto, "Nil Satis Nisi Optimum," encapsulates the ambition that drives the team. The Merseyside derby against Liverpool is a city-stopping event, an intense display of local passion and pride. The recent move to their new, state-of-the-art stadium marks the dawn of a new era, built on the foundations of a rich history and unconditional support.
