A new study has revealed the highest-rated Premier League stadiums, with Anfield taking the top spot.
Event insurance specialists Protectivity, analysed Google reviews for the 20 Premier League stadiums according to the 2024/2025 season, as well as for the three teams regulated last season. They looked at which stadiums had the highest proportion of five-star Google reviews left by visitors to determine their ranking. Anfield Stadium was crowned as the highest-rated Premier League stadium, with 86.99% of all reviews rated 5-stars, a staggering 39,293 out of 45,171 reviews.
Additionally, only 3.48% of all reviews were listed as 1-star for Liverpool’s home ground, which scores 4.7 out of 5 on Google overall.
In addition to football games, Anfield has also hosted various music artists over the years including P!nk, Elton John, The Rolling Stones, and more recently serving as a stop on Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour.
Following in second is Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with 84.33%, or 17,441 out of 20,683 Google reviews, being 5-stars. Just 3.51% of reviews for the stadium were listed as 1-star and it scored an impressive 4.7 out of 5 rating overall on Google.
The City Ground ranks as the third highest-rated Premier League stadium, with 80.76%, or 1,230 out of 1,523 of users leaving 5-star reviews. Just 3.35% of reviews for Nottingham Forest’s home stadium rated it as 1-star.
Old Trafford ranks fourth with 80.53% of visitors leaving 5-star reviews. Manchester United’s home ground had 4.27% of reviews left with a 1-star rating and scores 4.6 out of 5 overall on Google.
Rounding out the top five, is Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, where 79.08% of reviews rated it 5-stars. In more recent years, the stadium has seen the Arctic Monkeys and The Killers perform.
At the other end of the scale, Kenilworth Stadium, was found to be the lowest-rated Premier League stadium, with just 62.21% of reviews being 5-stars. An additional 10.64% of reviews were found to rate Luton’s home ground just 1-star.
Speaking on the findings, Sean Walsh, Head of Marketing at Protectivity, said:
“Exploring which stadiums are the highest rated by visitors is interesting as high ratings often reflect an exceptional fan experience. Visitors tend to appreciate aspects such as comfortable seating, clear sightlines, accessibility, and the overall atmosphere.”
“Stadiums with high review satisfaction often excel in fan engagement, offering various activities, fan zones, and interactive experiences. They foster a sense of community and belonging, which is crucial for building long-term loyalty among fans.”
“Comparing stadium ratings can provide benchmarks and best practices. Stadiums with lower ratings can learn from the top-rated ones to improve their own facilities and services.”
