赫瑟威克工作室（Heatherwick Studio）与曼尼卡（MANICA）合作，公布了伯明翰城足球俱乐部新体育场的设计方案，这座体育场将成为拟建的伯明翰体育区的核心。该体育场可容纳62,000名观众，位于伯明翰东部的博德斯利格林（Bordesley Green），将为这座城市打造一个新的地标，并庆祝其工业和工艺的历史。

这两家工作室与著名电影导演、作家以及终身伯明翰城足球俱乐部的球迷史蒂文·奈特（Steven Knight）合作，赢得了设计竞赛。项目的视觉效果今天（2025年11月20日）在伯明翰Digbeth Loc电影工作室的一个活动上发布，恰逢俱乐部成立150周年。

The two studios won the design competition in collaboration with Steven Knight, the acclaimed film director, writer and lifelong Blues fan. Visuals of the project were released today, 20 November 2025, at an event at Digbeth Loc film studio in Birmingham, marking the club’s 150th anniversary.

该体育场将配备可伸缩的屋顶和可移动的球场，确保其能够承办各种活动——从大型体育赛事到国际音乐会——所有这些都以卓越的球迷体验为优先。陡峭的看台设计旨在创造最为激烈的比赛时刻。设计将看台尽可能拉近并加陡，以创建一个360度的球迷围墙。体育场的高性能音响将增强人群的声音，为主队球迷创造一个难忘的氛围。

The stadium will feature a retractable roof and moveable pitch, ensuring flexibility for a variety of events – from major sporting fixtures to international music concerts – all prioritising an exceptional fan experience. The steep bowl is designed to create the most intense matchday moments. The design pulls the stands as close and as steep to the pitch as can be allowed to create a 360-degree wall of fans. The stadium’s high-performing acoustics will amplify the sound of the crowd, creating an unforgettable atmosphere for home supporters.

设计概念的核心是12个高耸如烟囱的结构，灵感来源于该地块悠久的砖瓦制造历史。尽可能使用回收砖块，这些结构直接支撑着屋顶，具有多重功能，创造出一个与伯明翰工业历史相连接的轮廓，内含电梯和楼梯，并作为体育场被动通风策略的一部分。

At the heart of the concept are 12 towering chimney-like structures, inspired by the site’s longstanding history of brick manufacturing. Using reclaimed bricks wherever possible, the structures directly support the roof and serve multiple purposes, creating a silhouette that connects the stadium to Birmingham’s industrial past, housing lifts and staircases, and acting as part of the stadium’s passive ventilation strategy.

为了实现最佳音响效果，这些“烟囱”将把声音从看台上方引导上升，同时防止噪音污染周边社区。其中一个烟囱将配备电梯，带领游客前往伯明翰最高的酒吧，俯瞰城市，并通过沉浸式体验讲述城市的历史。地面体验同样被设计团队重视。新体育场不仅仅是比赛日的去处，而是一个全年开放的公共空间。体育场周围的区域将提供食品市场、餐馆、咖啡馆、儿童游乐区和休闲场所，为当地社区提供一个聚集的场所，享受城市的新面貌。

Designed for optimal acoustics, the ‘chimneys’ will channel sound from the bowl upward while preventing noise pollution in the neighbourhood. One of the chimneys will also house a lift which transports visitors up to what will be the highest bar in Birmingham, with views over the city and an immersive experience telling stories of the city’s past. The ground experience has been equally important to the design team. Rather than being a place to visit on match days only, the new stadium will create a public space open to everyone throughout the week. From food markets, restaurants and cafes to children’s play areas and places to linger, the area around the stadium will offer the local community somewhere to come together and enjoy a new part of the city.

赫瑟威克工作室将负责项目的建筑、结构、烟囱、公共领域以及室内设计。曼尼卡，全球领先的体育和娱乐设计公司，将通过主导体育场的功能性设计（包括座位区和逐层布局），将美国式的体育场体验引入英国。

Heatherwick Studio will also be responsible for the architecture, structure, chimneys, and public realm as well as the interior design for the project. MANICA, a global leader in sport and entertainment design, is bringing US-style stadium experiences to the UK by leading the stadium’s functional design, including the seating bowl and level-by-level layouts.

赫瑟威克工作室创始人兼设计总监托马斯·赫瑟威克（Thomas Heatherwick）表示：“体育场常常像是降落在任何地方的飞船，周围的环境被消毒了。我们的体育场从伯明翰本身生长出来——从它的砖厂、千百年来的贸易历史以及其文化核心的工艺开始。它也是一个全心全意为社区而建的地方。体育场真正的生命力将体现在它与地面接触的地方；这里是玩耍、聚集和日常生活的场所。我们的目标是捕捉城市的精神并回馈给伯明翰。”

Thomas Heatherwick, founder and design director of Heatherwick Studio, said: “Too often, stadiums feel like spaceships that could have landed anywhere, sterilising the surrounding area. Ours grows from Birmingham itself — from its brickworks, its history of a thousand trades, and the craft at the core of its culture.It’s also a wholehearted place for the community. The stadium will truly come alive where it meets the ground; a place for play, gathering, and everyday life. Our goal is to capture the spirit of the city and play it back to Birmingham.”

曼尼卡建筑公司总裁兼老板大卫·曼尼卡（David Manica）表示：“为伯明翰城足球俱乐部设计一个新的世界级主场，是我们团队充满热情与激动的机会。“与赫瑟威克工作室合作，我们致力于打造一个体现伯明翰社区韧性与自豪感的场馆，同时也向俱乐部在社区中的悠久遗产致敬。”

David Manica, president and owner of MANICA Architecture, said: “Designing a new, world-class home for Birmingham City FC was an opportunity our teams embraced with enthusiasm and excitement. Working alongside Heatherwick Studio, we are dedicated to creating a venue that embodies the resilience and pride of the Birmingham community while honouring the Club’s lasting legacy within the community.”

Knighthead公司联合首席执行官兼伯明翰城足球俱乐部主席汤姆·瓦格纳（Tom Wagner）表示：“这是伯明翰城足球俱乐部的一个巨大里程碑，创造了一个反映我们竞争最高水平雄心的主场。更重要的是，这一标志性的设计表达了伯明翰和西米德兰兹地区的意图，见证了这一地区的崛起。体育场汲取了西米德兰兹地区自豪的历史——一个充满工业、创造力和发展的历史。我相信这些相同的品质可以在赛场内外创造新的成功时代，为那些长期缺乏机会的当地社区带来繁荣。”

Tom Wagner, Knighthead Co-CEO and BCFC Chairman said: “This is a huge milestone for Birmingham City Football Club, creating a home for the club that reflects our ambition to compete at the highest level. More than that, the iconic design is a statement of intent for the City of Birmingham and the West Midlands, testament to a region that is on the rise. The stadium draws upon the proud heritage of the West Midlands – a heritage of industry, ingenuity and growth. I believe those same qualities can create a new era of success on and off the field and prosperity for local communities that have been starved of opportunities for too long.”

新体育场将成为伯明翰东部体育区的核心，这一地区还将包括高性能训练设施和混合用途开发项目。预计到2035年，该项目每年将为伯明翰经济贡献7.6亿英镑。新体育场的目标是能够在2030/2031赛季开始时完成。为响应球迷和更广泛社区的需求与期望，公共参与计划将于2026年启动。

The new stadium will anchor the Birmingham Sports Quarter in East Birmingham, which will also include high-performance training facilities and mixed-use developments. The project is expected to contribute £760 million annually to Birmingham’s economy by 2035. The ambition is for the new stadium to be completed in time for the start of the 2030/2031 football season.A public engagement programme responding to the needs and aspirations of the fans and the wider community will begin in 2026.
