About this experience
The Manchester: Etihad Stadium and National Football Museum Tour is a full-day guided excursion from London, combining a behind-the-scenes visit to Manchester City FC's Etihad Stadium with entry to the National Football Museum in the city centre. The tour departs from London Euston, reaching Manchester in just over two hours by standard-class train with reserved seating, making it a practical day trip for visitors based in London. The Etihad Stadium, home to Manchester City since 2003, holds over 53,000 spectators and the guided portion takes in areas closed to the general public on matchdays. At the stadium, guests walk through the glass players' tunnel, sit in the dugouts, take in the view from pitch-side, and use interactive technology in the press room, including a session with a virtual Pep Guardiola. The National Football Museum visit is self-guided and covers the history and culture of football through permanent collections and rotating displays. The full day runs approximately 13 hours. Booking covers the return train journey in standard class with reserved seats, the guided Etihad Stadium tour, and National Football Museum entry. Lunch, transport between Manchester Piccadilly station and the attractions, and a live guide for the museum are not included. The tour is wheelchair accessible and operates on a non-refundable basis.
