Housebuilder Persimmon, which was founded in the city, has taken over sponsorship of the south stand at the LNER Community Stadium.
The deal, which is expected to run until end of the 2026/27 season, will build on Persimmon’s existing partnership with the York City FC Foundation.
To mark the announcement, both Persimmon and York City FC are asking supporters to submit their designs for two new banners to hang at the rear of the stand.
Fans should email their designs to media@yorkcityfootballclub.co.uk by midnight on Monday, November 18.
A new banner honouring former player David Longhurst will also be unveiled at the Minstermen’s home match against Maidenhead United on November 30.
Paul Sackey, commercial director at York City Football Club, said: "We are thrilled to bring Persimmon on board as our new proud sponsor of the South Stand.
"With an existing relationship already in place through our Foundation, it’s great to build upon that during an exciting time for the Football Club with this developing partnership.
