Opened in 2002 on the site of Filbert Street’s neighbour, the King Power Stadium is built for Premier League crowds and remains one of the biggest grounds in League One after Leicester’s relegation. Riverside location and large hospitality footprint make it a major casual-employer venue.

What happens here

  • Leicester City League One, FA Cup and EFL Cup home matches.
  • Premium hospitality lounges, boxes and concourse retail.
  • Conferences and events in the stadium suites.

Who runs hospitality and catering

Oak View Group (OVG) runs hospitality and catering at the King Power Stadium, covering matchday retail and premium hospitality. OVG took over the operation around August 2025, succeeding the previous Levy partnership.

What’s it like to work here

Expect Premier League-scale headcounts even in League One. Apply via Oak View Group careers routes rather than assuming Levy still hires here. A strong option for staff across Leicestershire and the East Midlands.
