Scotland

Edinburgh Football Tourism

Two clubs with over 150 years of history, two atmospheric stadiums, and one of the most intense derbies in Scottish football.

Stadium tours

Easter Road Stadium Tour

Home of Hibernian FC · Founded 1875

Easter Road has been Hibernian's home since 1893. Founded in 1875 by Irish immigrants in Edinburgh's Cowgate, Hibs were the first British club to play in European competition.

Tynecastle Stadium Tour

Home of Heart of Midlothian FC · Founded 1874

One of the most atmospheric grounds in Scottish football. Located in Gorgie, just 2km from the city centre. Compact, steep, and loud — away fans describe it as one of the most intimidating in Scotland.

The Edinburgh Derby

The Hibernian vs Hearts derby is one of the most intense in Scottish football. Rooted in geography and community, it is loud, passionate, and sells out quickly. If your visit coincides with a derby, it is an experience unlike any other.
