aboutSectionText

The National Football Museum exists to explain how and why football has become ‘the people’s game’, a key part of England’s heritage and way of life. It also aims to explain why England is the home of football, the birthplace of the world’s most popular sport. The Museum is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, disability, sexuality, religion or any other factor. It is not just for those who are interested in or passionate about the sport. The National Football Museum aims to be the first point of contact with football for non-fans and an introduction to wider aspects of culture and history for football fans. It has a particular focus on those sections of the community that do not usually visit museums and galleries. The Museum has a long-term mission, a responsibility to protect football’s heritage and culture for future generations as well as current audiences.

Worth a visit

Visited on a Saturday afternoon. The building is very modern, light and airy. Lots of space. The museum is spread over 3 floors, all easily accessible via a spacious lift. The bulk of the exhibits are on the first floor, the 'Match Gallery'. Lots of memorabilia, trophies etc along with a few video features. Level 2 is the 'Play Gallery' with activities for mainly younger visitors. Level 3 is the 'Score Gallery' with some art work. The accessible toilets are on the ground floor and were roomy and very clean. The cafe is also on the ground floor next to the shop and has plenty of seats with lots of space.
