A Fulham FC Stadium Tour opens the doors to one of London’s most historic football grounds. This 90-minute journey through Craven Cottage reveals the stories and spaces that make this riverside stadium so special.

The Tour Experience

Your adventure begins at the Johnny Haynes statue, where expert guides share tales of Fulham’s rich heritage. As you walk through the stadium, you’ll discover why Craven Cottage holds a unique place in English football history, dating back to 1896.

Your first stop is the Johnny Haynes Stand, a Grade II listed structure that houses the last remaining wooden seats in English football. These seats tell the stories of countless matches and the fans who have cheered their team from these historic spots.

In the home team changing room, you can sit where your favourite players prepare for matches. The guides provide insights into match-day routines and team traditions that bring you closer to the action.

Exclusive Access

The tour route takes you through areas typically closed to the public. From the press box, you can enjoy stunning views across the Thames while learning how matches are broadcast to millions worldwide.

A highlight for many visitors is stepping onto the Cottage balcony. This vantage point offers perfect photo opportunities and demonstrates why Craven Cottage’s riverside location makes it one of football’s most picturesque grounds.

The lower level of the new Riverside Stand symbolizes Fulham’s future. While still under development, this area shows how the club balances tradition with progress.

Historic Significance

As you explore, you’ll learn about significant moments in the stadium’s history, such as:

  • Hosting matches during the 1948 Olympics
  • The famous 1907 England versus Wales international fixture
  • Recent milestones like the 2018 England Lionesses match
  • The 2011 Women’s Champions League Final

Behind the Scenes

Your guide reveals fascinating details about match-day operations and the stadium’s unique features. From the press facilities to pitch-side areas, each stop adds to your understanding of how a professional football club operates.

The tour concludes at the club shop, where you can browse exclusive merchandise and pick up souvenirs from your visit.

A Living Museum

What sets this tour apart is its blend of past and present. While modern Premier League facilities meet current standards, original features like the cottage building and wooden seats preserve the ground’s character. This combination creates an experience that appeals to both devoted Fulham supporters and football fans in general.

Every corner of Craven Cottage holds a story, from the changing rooms where legends prepared for battle to the stands where generations of supporters have cheered their team. The tour brings these stories to life through expert commentary and exclusive access to areas normally off-limits to the public.

Whether you’re a lifelong Fulham fan or simply love football history, this tour offers a genuine look at one of London’s most characterful stadiums. The blend of heritage features and modern facilities illustrates how Fulham FC honors its past while building for the future.
