New corporate hospitality suites at Villa Park

Aston Villa are in the process of installing four new corporate hospitality suites in the heart of their Birmingham home.

The Premiership football club are making multi-million pound renovations in the Trinity Road Stand of Villa Park, including a swanky restaurant where high-flying fans can rub shoulders with the leading club executives.

For £7,000 including VAT for the season, followers of Martin O'Neill's team can dine at the new Directors venue alongside the likes of Randy Lerner and Doug Ellis, as well as visiting directors such as Roman Abramovich.

The package will also include valet car parking, plus complimentary canapes and champagne.

The other new facilities include 82 Lounge on the first floor, which offers prime views of the action, plus visits from former Villa stars, from £2,700 per season.

Situated above the halfway line, Trinity will set fans back around £3,500 for the season, with perks such as personalised seating and table plaques.

McGregors is the final VIP option, costing £4,750, including a "chic and modern restaurant" and exclusive padded seating with prime views of the football.

"Nobody else does this in the football world," according to Alison Plant, head of hospitality and events at Aston Villa.

"We feel this is unique. We looked at other football clubs, the world of horse racing and cricket.

"This is all about improving the service we offer - we want to make this as good as anything elsewhere," she added.

The new corporate hospitality suites are set to be completed in time for the start of the new season in August, with 400 season ticket holders set to be relocated to other seats in the stands.ADNFCR-1121-ID-18649418-ADNFCR
