In recent years, the women's game, and the Women's Super League in particular, have progressed at an extraordinary rate. From superstars emerging, such as Alessia Russo, to an ever-growing audience, the sport is undeniably on its way up.
The Lionesses' triumph at the Women's Euros this summer means that interest in the women's game is only going to increase further in 2025/26, too.
As a result, stadiums have become a popular talking point in the sport, especially after an increase in attendance. More and more frequently, women's sides are starting to share one stadium with the men, and in some cases, are being built their own state-of-the-art facility altogether.
These developments are an undeniable step in the right direction. They will not only attract the attention of more spectators but also improve the facilities for both the current players and the future stars of the women's game.
This article will take you through every Women's Super League ground, including a map and a breakdown of each venue.

Women's Super League 2025/26 season stadiums
Now, it is time to examine each stadium in a little more detail, examining its various capacities. While the Emirates Stadium won't be Arsenal Women's only home this term, it is the side's primary home, which makes it the largest Women's Super League ground in the division.
Everton have also made a move, leaving behind Walton Hall Park, which had a capacity of just 2,135, for Goodison Park. The men's team have moved to the Hill Dickinson Stadium, and instead of demolishing Goodison for houses, the club announced at the end of last season that it would be used as a home for the women's team instead.
A full list is as follows:

While it has not always been the case, a handful of Women's Super League sides now share a home ground with their male counterparts.
Perhaps most notable is Arsenal, who have confirmed that their women's team will play all of their home Women's Super League to the Emirates Stadium from the 2025/26 season onwards
Also worth mentioning are Women's Super League newbies London City Lionesses, who share Hayes Lane with the men's team of current League Two outfit, Bromley.
There are three more WSL teams that play the majority of their home games at their club's main stadium, and they are:
- Aston Villa
- Brighton & Hove Albion
- Leicester City
As well as the aforementioned teams, most of the remaining seven WSL sides also play at their club's main ground on special occasions, such as high-demand fixtures like local derbies. Manchester City Women, for example, played three of their Women's Super League home matches at the Etihad during the 2024/25 season.

However, Brighton believes that for the Women's game to really advance, WSL sides must be afforded the opportunity to play in their own purpose-built stadiums—and the Seagulls look as though they will be the first club in the country to achieve that feat after receiving approval from the council.
In November 2023, Brighton City Councillor John Hewitt stated: “The intention is to build around 10,000 capacity, which is a realistic number. The team get around 3-4,000 at Crawley, but there is the capacity for the club to grow in the coming years.
“It’s about the women’s game achieving parity with the men’s game. Women’s football is growing. Brighton hosted three games at the Euros last year and there were good attendances. We know there’s the scope for it.”
Before stating that “Hopefully, other cities and towns can follow suit in supporting their women’s teams.”
While work on the project has yet to start, it hopefully won't be long before the club decides on a location for the new stadium and construction can begin.
