The fabulous £43.5m Kingston Communications Stadium opened its doors on Wednesday December 18 2002 and the Tigers beat Sunderland 1-0 in a friendly to mark the occasion.

The stadium is the Tigers' home and below are a selection of pictures from the opening night as well as some generic shots taken ahead of that.

You'll also find comprehensive directions to the stadium further down the page.
