Discover the trailblazing world of the Scottish pioneers (aka ‘Scotch Professors’) who developed the beautiful game and exported it to the world!
Graeme and Rory, from The Hampden Collection, will guide you through the story behind 21 heritage sites across Glasgow which make up Football’s Square Mile: the world’s biggest open air football museum, which is the cradle of the modern passing, running and combination game.
You’ll also hear about the 3 Hampden Parks and where the story began, how they went about creating Football’s Square Mile, and the work they’ve been doing to try and make this Glasgow’s first UNESCO World Heritage site.
