A new video showing the stadium’s transformation between May 21 and August 14 has now been released.

The video starts with the conclusion of West Ham’s final home match of last season against Leeds.

Workers immediately begin removing the pitch in order to erect a stage, with Nigerian singer Burna Boy staging a concert on June 3.

The venue is then converted into a baseball pitch to host the MLB London Series at the end of June.

Pictures from the stadium at the time showed it looking unrecognisable following the transformation.

However, the work caused controversy amongst fans as the baseball event prevented the club from screening the Europa Conference League final.

Another pair of concerts were then held in July, with The Weeknd performing twice once the baseball pitch had been removed.

Dirt and ramps were later installed for the Monster Jam monster truck event later that same month.

Grass made its return to the London Stadium before the end of July, though, with a London Athletics meet taking place.

The event also saw the ground’s athletics track revealed around the outside of the pitch.

West Ham’s pitch has since been restored for the start of the new season, with the timelapse ending on August 14.

The Hammers host Chelsea in their first Premier League home game on Sunday.
