Leicester City Football Club played at Filbert Street for 111 years, with improvements like a new Main Stand in 1993. By 2001, a new 32,500-seat stadium was built and opened in 2002 by former player Gary Lineker, initially named Walkers Stadium.
The first match saw Leicester beat Watford 2–0, and despite financial troubles, the club was promoted to the Premier League that season. Renamed King Power Stadium in 2011 under new ownership, the club transformed, famously winning the Premier League in 2015/16 against 5000/1 odds. They then reached the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals the following season.
In 2018, the club mourned the tragic helicopter crash that killed owner Khun Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, commemorated by a memorial garden at the stadium.
