Brunton Park is a football stadium and the home of Carlisle United. It is situated in the city of Carlisle and has a certified capacity of 17,949. The ground opened in 1909. Brunton Park's grandstand burned down in 1953 and the stadium flooded completely in 2005 and again in 2015.
Brunton Park is split into four separate stands: Warwick Road End, East Stand, Main (West) Stand and the Petteril End, which remains closed unless exceptionally large crowds are in attendance.
Brunton Park is the largest football stadium in England to still including traditional terracing. In 2011, Carlisle United announced plans to move away from Brunton Park to a 12,000 capacity all-seater stadium, although in 2016 the club declared that the move to a new stadium had been shelved.
At one time the ground capacity was set at 27,500 but this was first reduced in the 1980s and then before the 2012–13 season Cumbria County Council inspected Brunton Park and deemed that certain areas of the stadium were unsafe, resulting in the capacity of the ground being reduced further to 17,001 for the forthcoming season (increased slightly since).
The largest attendance at the ground in recent years saw 15,401 attend the 2023 League Two playoff semi-final, almost half of which were seated. This was the largest attendance at the ground since 18,556 watched an FA Cup tie against Liverpool in 1989.
