Visit Lancashire in Summer 2025

FOOTBALL CLUB STADIUM TOURS

enjoy the spirit of the game get yourself on a stadium tour

If football is your thing, Lancashire is the place to be! Considered the birth place of league football, Lancashire has three major teams that float within the Championship and the Premier leagues; Burnley, Blackburn and Preston North

End. There are a number of lower league teams that

have special history too, with Blackpool, Accrington Stanley, Morecambe and more all offering a great football experience. The summer is obviously off season, but if you want to enjoy the spirit of the game, get yourself on a stadium tour! Burnley Football Club offer tours of Turf Moor, where you can find out what goes on behind the scenes and visit exclusive areas of the stadium, such as the trophy room, pitch side and the dressing rooms across a 90-minute time slot. There are also tours at Blackburn’s Ewood Park where you can visit the players’ tunnel, the home and away changing rooms, the historic oak-paneled

Boardroom, the corporate suites, and the Media Suite over the 90-minute tour.

Ewood Park

GO APE & CLIMBING Experience the thrill of heights as you take on Go Ape high rope experiences at either Blackburn’s Witton Park or Rivington near Chorley. Nip through the trees, cross wobbly bridges, fly down zip wires and more, as you enjoy time amongst the tops of the trees. Both locations offer plenty of additional fun with walking routes, play areas and more to explore. There are climbing walls in Blackpool, Preston and Lancaster if you catch the bug for exploring new heights.
