About this Event
Join exhibition curator, Pete Collard for an in-depth look at Home Ground: the architecture of football.
Go behind the scenes of the beautiful game and explore how football stadiums have shaped cities, local neighbourhoods, and communities for over 125 years.
Home Ground celebrates the stadium as a cultural landmark and a place of weekly pilgrimage, where thousands gather in hope, pride, and passion. From early terraces to today’s bold arenas, stadiums reflect the identity of the places they belong to.
Inspired by Everton Football Club’s new Hill Dickinson Stadium, the exhibition features more than 50 stadiums from around the world. Through architectural models, photographs, film, and archive material, you will see how stadium design has evolved, and why it matters.
This curator tour is part of Home Ground Festival: Football, Fans and Design, a free day of creative activities, talks, and workshops celebrating the traditions, spaces, stories and communities of football.
The tour is free, and will last approximately 45 minutes. Please book in advance as spaces are limited. Timings:
- 10.30am to 11.15am
- 12pm to 12.45pm
- 2pm to 2.45pm
