They will conduct test events in front of crowds of different capacities as part of their preparation.<\/p>\n<p>Goodison Park has been Everton\u2019s home since 1892, has staged more top-flight games than any other ground in England and was one of the venues for the 1966 World Cup.

It is a club decision driven by a combination of commercial insight, a comprehensive review of the logistics required, an analysis of the potential impact upon our football operations and, importantly, fan feedback sourced as part of our recent stadium migration survey, which was completed by almost 10,000 Evertonians. Everton Stadium remains firmly on track, as scheduled, to be completed in the final weeks of 2024.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNext season, 2024-25, is scheduled to be our last at Goodison Park. By the time we close the gates for the final time, Goodison will have been our home for nearly 134 years, with many supporters telling us very clearly about their desire to make sure the Grand Old Lady gets a fitting send-off.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor a while now, the club has been looking at a series of events, tours and celebrations that will allow us all to pay tribute to one of the world\u2019s most iconic and well-known stadiums. Now we know the farewell to Goodison will be a year-long celebration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/sport\/football\/everton-goodison-park-new-stadium-b2464924.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everton will stay at Goodison until the end of the 2024-25 season Sign up to Miguel Delaney\u2019s Reading the Game<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":296925,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Everton announce move-in date for new dockside stadium - but it\u2019s later than expected - Sports Love Me<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Everton announce move-in date for new dockside stadium - but it\u2019s later than expected - Sports Love Me\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Everton will stay at Goodison until the end of the 2024-25 season Sign up to Miguel Delaney\u2019s Reading the Game\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Sports Love Me\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-12-15T20:47:41+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"mediabest\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"mediabest\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/\",\"name\":\"Everton announce move-in date for new dockside stadium - but it\u2019s later than expected - Sports Love Me\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-12-15T20:47:41+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-12-15T20:47:41+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/#\/schema\/person\/74db1979fe71b5ea01513ec1ce5bc609\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/soccer\/everton-announce-move-in-date-for-new-dockside-stadium-but-its-later-than-expected\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Soccer\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/sportsloveme.com\/category\/soccer\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Everton announce move-in date for new dockside stadium &#8211;
