The site provides three dual-socket 300kW chargers, amounting to six ultra-fast charge points, and represents Allego’s first ultra-fast EV-charging hub in the UK and its first charging hub at an elite sporting venue.

Stadium MK opened in 2007 and is home to MK Dons Football Club, DoubleTree by Hilton Milton Keynes, Marshall Arena, Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill, MK Dons Sport and Education Trust, and local radio station MKFM. The stadium holds a capacity of 30,500 with two tiers, and the design meets UEFA's elite stadium specifications. In addition to association football, the stadium also plays host to large sporting events, conventions, and concerts.

Allego’s new ultra-fast EV charging hub is specifically designed and configured to be fully accessible to all users: the hub at this location also caters to wheelchair users with facilities such as lower payment screens and wider parking bays, making them easy to use for everyone. The ultra-fast charge points that have been installed enable visitors to Stadium MK, and passing traffic as well as residents of the local area to charge their electric vehicle when they need, and in no more than 10-15 minutes.
