Plans for a £1.5m fan-zone at Stoke City's stadium have been unveiled.
The Potters' development would include a main stage, large screen and food and drink outlets, as well as a dedicated children's area.
It has been a long-held ambition to develop venue to enhance the fans' matchday experience, the club said.
If the plans are approved by Stoke-on-Trent City Council, it said work would be completed for the start of the 2024-25 season.
The zone would be built next to the North car park, and would also include covered areas for supporters to congregate.
