KENILWORTH ROAD Going to the Match Art - Luton Town Football Club
Kenilworth Road is a association football stadium in Luton, Bedfordshire, England. It has been the home ground of Luton Town Football Club since 1905. The stadium has also hosted womens and youth international matches.
The 10, 356 all-seater stadium is situated in the district of Bury Park, one mile (1.6 km) west of the centre of Luton. It is named after the road which runs along one end of it, though its official address is 1 Maple Road. Kenilworth Road hosted football in the Southern League until 1920, then in the Football League until 2009, when Luton were relegated to the Conference Premier. It has hosted Football League matches once more since 2014.
Floodlights were fitted in 1953, and the ground became all-seated in 1991. The record attendance of 30, 069 was set in 1959, in an FA Cup sixth round replay against Blackpool.
The ground is known for the artificial playing surface which was in place from 1985 until 1991, the unusual entrance to the Oak Road End, and the five-season ban on away supporters that Luton Town imposed following a riot by visiting fans in 1985
