Brighton & Hove Albion's American Express Community Stadium is set to undergo the revamp, which includes replacing floodlights with a new LED system, installing additional TV gantry as well as an additional TV studio and hospitality area in the south-east corner.
Other highlights include upgrading media facilities to provide six interview areas for UK and global broadcasters, as well as improving the post-match press conference area.

In addition a new new matchday restaurant will be added in the East Stand, while families and guests of players/managers will benefit from upgrade lounges.
The project is being carried out to allow the Stadium to host Premier League football next season.
Albion executive director Martin Perry said: "While Chris Hughton, Tony Bloom, Paul Winstanley and Paul Barber have a busy summer ahead in terms of player recruitment - the project team have a huge amount of work to undertake to ensure the stadium is ready for Premier League football next August.
"It's something we've been planning for a long time, and the plans have evolved in the past four or five years, as each year the requirements change, but we are thrilled that thanks to Chris and the players' achievements we can finally put the plans into action," he said.
