At which stadium did Arsenal open the 2026–27 Premier League season?

The story behind the answer

Arsenal opened the 2026–27 Premier League season at Emirates Stadium.

Their first fixture was a home match against Coventry City on Friday 21 August 2026. The stadium, in Holloway, north London, has been Arsenal’s home since the club moved from Highbury in 2006.

Emirates Stadium is one of the largest grounds in the Premier League. The 2026–27 season listing gives it a capacity of 60,704, placing it among the division’s biggest venues.

The opening match also marked the start of Arsenal’s title defence. They had won the previous Premier League championship, so the fixture combined the ceremonial opening of the new campaign with the champions’ first competitive league appearance of the season.
