Huddersfield Town has completed the takeover of Accu Stadium, securing full ownership and operational control of the venue and surrounding site. Previously, the stadium had been managed through a joint venture, Kirklees Stadium Development Limited (KSDL), with Huddersfield Town holding 40%, Kirklees Council 40%, and Huddersfield Giants 20% since the stadium’s opening in 1994.
The club has signed a 300-year leasehold for the site, with existing KSDL staff now employed by Huddersfield Town. Huddersfield Giants will remain at the stadium as tenants in 2026 under a separate agreement.
The move allows Huddersfield Town to manage stadium operations independently, pursue infrastructure improvements, and explore wider commercial opportunities. The club has already undertaken significant upgrades to the venue during 2024 and 2025, positioning the stadium as both a football venue and a potential destination for broader developments.
This acquisition marks the first time Huddersfield Town has held complete control of its home ground, providing a platform for future investment, operational efficiency, and revenue growth.
