Bosuil Stadion – design description

What did the initial plan for upgrading Bosuil Stadium include?

The project originally called for the construction of a completely new stand on the west side of the Bosuil Stadium, replacing the old stand dating back to 1923. The new stand was to have 5,362 seats (compared to the 2,373 seats in the old stand) and be fully roofed.

In addition to the increased capacity, the grandstand was also to provide new usable space, offering six floors with space for club offices, new changing rooms, media rooms and extensive business facilities, including restaurants overlooking the pitch. Externally, the grandstand has been given a glass façade, reminiscent of an office building rather than a football stadium.

What has the Bosuil Stadium redevelopment project been extended to include?

Following the construction of the new west stand, it was decided to extend the project to include the redevelopment of further stands. The first to be built was the new south stand. This stand (as opposed to the west stand) was designed as a two-level structure for the most ardent supporters, with standing room in the lower tier.

It was covered with a roof integrated with the canopy of the west stand and also equipped with extensive backstage facilities. Its capacity is 7,500 spectators. The new stand's facilities include additional changing rooms, training and teaching rooms or a medical center, and it is also crowned from the outside by a glass façade.

What has already been done as part of the modernisation of Bosuil Stadium?

The demolition of the old stand and the construction of the new west stand were carried out between June and November 2017. The construction of the new south stand was carried out between 2019 and 2021.

What are the further plans for the reconstruction of Bosuil Stadium?

In the future, the stands on the north and east sides would be built from scratch, as was the case with the west and south stands.

In May 2025, the east stand (Tribune 2), which had been out of service since 2020, was demolished. For the time being, only a temporary structure is to be built in its place, which should be ready in November 2025.
