A fire broke out at Wolverhampton Wanderers' stadium Molineux in the early hours of Sunday morning.
The blaze ensued for around two hours from 1:40am as 20 firefighters eventually managed to contain the flames.
Flames and smoke were seen coming out of a conference suite in the Billy Wright stand.
It is understood that no one was in the stand when the fire hit.
Firefighters were quick to arrive on the scene and were able to confine the blaze to just one room.
West Midlands Fire Service issued a statement on the incident, a spokesman said: "At 1.56am this morning we responded to a fire at The Molineux Stadium, Wolverhampton.
"The first of four fire crews and 20 firefighters arrived two minutes after being mobilised.

"We contained the fire to a conference suite bar area. It was out by 3.40am."
They added that crews left the scene at 6.45am and would be return later to check on the situation.
It was also revealed that the fire is believed to have been started accidentally, in an electrical appliance.
Crews from stations across the city, which included Wolverhampton, Fallings Park, Willenhall and Bilston, were quick to head to Molineux.
Wolves have since put out a statement that reads: "Considerable damage has been caused by a fire in the Billy Wright Stand at Molineux.
"Thank you to the excellent @WestMidsFire for their prompt response and assistance in controlling the blaze."
Wolves’ facilities, safety and security director, Steve Sutton, said fans could be affected for the next home game.
He said: "Thank you to the quick and excellent work of West Midlands Fire Service for their prompt assistance in tackling the flames and getting the fire under control as quickly as possible.
"It will take some days to fully assess the damage that has been caused, however it is quite significant and will take some time to repair. Any supporter packages affected for the next game will be communicated by the relevant departments over the coming days.
"The most important thing of course, is that no-one was present at the time, apart from our 24-hour security team, and no-one was hurt.
"We apologise to residents in the area for the very loud alarms that went off late into the night, but hope they understand their necessity at such a critical time."
An eye witness told Birmingham Live: "Wolverhampton Wanderers Ground Molineux Stadium is currently on fire.
"It has been cordoned off from Asda Island up to The Hotel at the end of Waterloo Road.
"The tannoys are going off and people are being asked to stay clear to allow emergency workers to secure the scene. Currently there are four fire engines, and police and paramedics in attendance."
Wolves played away from their Molineux home on Saturday afternoon, securing a 2-1 win in west London against Brentford.
Ruben Neves scored the winner for Bruno Lage's men, who continue their push for a European spot.
Their next game at Molineux will be in February when they take on Norwich City in the FA Cup.
Lage said following the win at Brentford: “It was a strange first half and the two breaks didn’t help the game’s rhythm.
“But we did very well in the second half, the break helped us and we came with that will to win the game.
“We started well and scored a goal and then they scored, they are very good from set pieces.
“But we came again and in the end we scored goals and I’m happy because we came with the personality to play our game with the consistency I have been asking from them.
“It’s very hard to play against this team, especially at home. I am happy because of the quality of our work."
