Everton Football Club has announced that Hill Dickinson, a legal firm based in Liverpool, will be the naming rights partner for their new stadium. The stadium, located at Bramley-Moore Dock, will be officially known as the Hill Dickinson Stadium. The firm, which was established in 1810 and has its main office in the city, entered into a long-term agreement with the club.
According to Everton, this arrangement is among the most financially significant stadium naming rights deals in European football. Craig Scott, Hill Dickinson’s chief executive officer, described the partnership as a rare and meaningful opportunity. He highlighted the project’s role in shaping Liverpool’s future and praised its ambitious direction.
The new ground will accommodate 52,888 fans and is set to become Everton’s home from the beginning of the 2025-26 season. Test events have already taken place at the venue, including a match between Everton’s and Wigan’s under-18 sides, marking the first football fixture at the site.
The club is preparing to leave Goodison Park, where they have played for over a century. The men’s team will play their final match at the historic stadium on Sunday, hosting Southampton in the Premier League.
While the men’s squad transitions to the waterfront venue, Everton Women will make Goodison Park their full-time home from next season. The club has confirmed that this move will begin with the upcoming campaign.
