I sit right next to the premium seats, where there were hundreds of South Korean fans. My only beef with them is that they applauded the Wolves player, sorry don't know his name, when we'd just lost the game.
I'm always surrounded by tourists, some genuine fans but a fair number are just there to say they've seen a PL game (just like I'd go and see a Broadway show if I went to New York).

Don’t know why but I love seeing all the South Korean fans at the ground. I suspect most of them are students who live here but I expect a few are on holiday for the game. Some seem pretty passionate whilst I’ve sat with others who don’t seem to have a clue as to what’s going on.

I find them very enthusiastic and I'd like to think that they came for Son and stayed for Spurs.
I have seen quite a few with other players names on their shirts and a beer in hand.
Of course it is still required by law to yel 'SONNNNNNNNY!' at them.

When the stadium was bult there was a restriction on its use for non football l events with no more than 16 allowed per year, including a maximum of 6 music concerts pa.

In 2023 this was varied on a one-off basis, principally to allow 3 Beyonce concerts to be scheduled which would have otherwise broken the 6 concert cap.. Update on events being staged at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium | Haringey Council.

Independent studies have shown that the stadium events generate significant business/value added for the wider local community above and beyond revenues generated in the stadium for Spurs.

Spurs are in the process of applying to increase the number of non football events from 16 to 30 with public consultations commencing today.


Non footballing events held to date have included NFL, rugby union, rugby league, boxing and music concerts.

Does anyone know how much profit these non-football events make for the club?

It’s all about the player for them. When Ronaldo left Real for Juve. Real lost a million Twitter followers and Juve gained the same.
 
I reckon we could make more money on a matchday with staff that aren't totally gormless.
