Everton's historic move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium is paying major dividends, with the club delivering one of the Premier League's most dramatic improvements in matchday experience. According to the league's official fan survey, the Toffees have rocketed 12 places to rank fifth overall, a testament to the transformative power of their new waterfront home.
The numbers tell a compelling story of progress. Everton's overall fan experience score jumped over eight points to 74.2, soaring well above the league average of 67.0. This leap is fueled by massive gains across every key metric, turning matchdays into a modern, seamless event.
Gone are the days of spotty service and dated facilities. The iconic Goodison Park atmosphere has not only been preserved but enhanced, with positive sentiment on matchday buzz skyrocketing from 71% to 89%. Fans are also reveling in the state-of-the-art surroundings, with satisfaction in facilities and stadium investment hitting a remarkable 92%.
Perhaps the most striking upgrades are in the fundamentals. Cleanliness scores have soared, and the notoriously tricky matchday essentials—food, drink, and connectivity—are now best-in-class. Everton's food and drink satisfaction ranks among the top three in the league, while their stadium WiFi and mobile signal are officially the best in the Premier League, ensuring fans never miss a moment of the action or a chance to share it.
This excellence extends to the people who make it happen. Everton's stewarding ranks first in the league, and the overall performance of club staff is third, creating a welcoming and efficient environment from the turnstiles to the ticket office. It's clear: for Evertonians, a new era has begun, built on a foundation of top-tier facilities, flawless operations, and an electric atmosphere that honors the club's proud past while charging into its future.
