Crystal Palace Sports Centre Revamp Reaches 'Key Milestone'
The £130 million project aims to restore pools, expand sports facilities, and increase stadium capacity to 25,000, securing Crystal Palace as a regional sports hub.
- Developer Morgan Sindell submitted a full planning application to Bromley Council for the Greater London Authority's £130m Crystal Palace National Sports Centre regeneration, expected complete by 2028.
- Sir Sadiq Khan announced the redevelopment as a once-in-a-generation effort to save the national facility, aiming to re-establish Crystal Palace as a regional sport hub after years of decline.
- Plans include reopening the 50m competition and diving pools with the 25m pool moved into the main hall, adding a six‑court padel centre and restoring seating capacity to 25,000.
- Site users will lose access during the £130 million construction, which could start by the end of the year, with a target opening of late 2028, and Morgan Sindall Construction was appointed last year.
- Separating wet and dry facilities is a complex technical exercise likely to affect the building's original architecture, and while sports centre changes are fully funded, City Hall still needs funding for the stadium.
