The stadium was the first in England to be built as an all-seater venue specifically designed for a club moving from a historic traditional ground.
The 'Toughsheet' name originates from a local building materials company that secured the naming rights in 2023.
The stadium structure incorporates a hotel integrated directly into the south stand.
During its construction, the project was notably praised for its innovative use of reinforced concrete pre-cast components.
The stadium has hosted several major music artists, including Oasis, Pink, and Coldplay.
Toughsheet Community Stadium serves as the primary home ground for Bolton Wanderers Football Club. Opened in 1997, the facility was originally known as the Reebok Stadium. It features a capacity of approximately 28,700 spectators across four distinct stands. The stadium is situated in Horwich, within the Metropolitan Borough of Bolton, near the M61 motorway. The pitch dimensions measure 105 meters by 68 meters. It is a multi-purpose venue that hosts professional league football, international fixtures, and large-scale concerts. The site integrates significant retail and leisure facilities within the immediate vicinity.
