Celtic Park is the second largest club stadium in the United Kingdom.Attracting 57-58,000 fans to every home game. Celtic are second only to Manchester United in terms of average attendance records in British football. The stadium is also occasionally used for concerts, and in the past even for large Catholic masses or Evangelical get-togethers (Billy Graham).

Recent Developements
More recently major reconstruction of the stadium began in 1994. Aside from the main stand, the entire old stadium was razed to the ground. A new North Stand was built while Celtic played for one season at Hampden Park. The East Stand (later renamed the Lisbon Lions Stand) followed in the 1996/97 season, and the Jock Stein Stand was completed for the beginning of the 1998/99 season.
