Overview

The access to Hampden Park is fully accessible, being a large stadia there is ample parking that is disabled designated and welcomes blue badge holders too. If you are taking the train or bus it’s a lengthy trek. The venue is 2.5 miles from Glasgow City Centre. Being a sporting museum it appeals to those who like the history of Scottish Club and National Football, it’s a well laid out journey on a timeline basis through origins, history, development of the game from 1869 to the current day. The Stadium tour is not fully wheelchair or walking aid friendly so there are areas you miss out on. It can appeal to all ages and it’s an experience if you are interested in football.

Transport & Parking

Ample parking with designated bays, train or bus is not close, train 750 m bus 500m steep inclines and descents to and from the stadium.

Access

Limited signage, for visitors to the museum this is more than adequate via lifts, doors are wide as the concourse areas

Toilets

As the museum is in the main stand where the hospitality rooms, function suites and administration are located the toilets are fully andwell appointed with plenty space. However if you are a spectator in the other stands, a totally different and disappointing story.

Staff

Although there were 2 Guides on hand they were not keen to interact or engage unless you made the initial prompt or contact. It would have been difficult to get a clear and full description if you did not already have a knowledge and understading of the sport.
