Rangers FC has announced a series of major upgrades to Ibrox Stadium, aiming to enhance both the fan experience and accessibility for the 2024/25 season. Among the most notable changes is the expansion of the stadium’s wheelchair-accessible seating to 153 spaces, making it the most accessible venue in the Scottish Premiership. These additions will replace existing back rows in specific sections but come with efforts to ensure smooth transitions for affected fans【7†source】【8†source】.
The club also plans to expand the singing section, relocating it to the Copland Front, with hopes of amplifying the stadium atmosphere. The Union Bears, a prominent fan group, will be positioned in this new area, further contributing to a vibrant match-day experience. Additionally, Rangers will introduce a new cantilever structure at the Copland Rear, adding nearly 1,000 seats with premium pitch views, resulting in a net increase of about 600 seats overall【8†source】【9†source】.
The upgrades reflect the club’s ongoing commitment to modernizing Ibrox and fostering inclusivity. Fans displaced by the changes will be given priority access to the new cantilever section or other preferred areas. Rangers emphasized the importance of preserving the emotional connection supporters have with their existing seats, offering a thoughtful approach to seat relocations【10†source】.
