The National Football Museum will be opening its doors early for visitors with autism, their families, friends and carers.

9 June 2019
9am – 10:30am

Families can explore the galleries in a calm and relaxed environment before the general public access. Gallery sound levels will be minimal with a quiet room available. There will be plenty of opportunities to kick a football around in our Football Plus+ interactives, while non-football fans can enjoy craft activities, handling objects, trails and more.The activities are free of charge and you can just drop in. Activities are suitable for anyone over 5 years old.

The museum will be looking to establish regular monthly openings of this nature; please check our What’s On page for the latest dates.
