Football is a pretty big deal here in the UK. Up north, Liverpool, Everton, Manchester United and Manchester City all play within roughly 30 miles of each other. However, Burnley which was founded in 1882, was one of the first Clubs, to become professional!
The Club already moved into their Stadium Turf Moor in 1883, with a capacity of nearly 22.000, which shows how important football was already 130 years ago. This means that you will be able to experience a historical sight, where many matches and seasons have been played. One of their biggest rivals is Blackburn Rovers, with whom they contest in the East Lancashire Derby. As two founding members of the Football League, this rivalry grew in stature in the late 1800s, as North Western teams dominated the English game. Whilst Burnley fans may have been disheartened by relegation to the Championship, there is one silver lining for the Clarets – a derby day against old foes Blackburn Rovers.
Another interesting fact is that Burnley changed their Club colours in 1910, to pay tribute to the Football League Champion at the time: Aston Villa. This great gesture of respect has been rarely seen elsewhere in the football world, which makes it even more fascinating!
This Package comes with long-side tickets, as well as 2 nights in a 3* hotel.
Please make sure to be at the Stadium around 2.5 hours prior to kick-off, in order to enjoy this exceptional experience to the fullest!

The maximum number of people the host will allow is stated above. However this number may not always be met and it may even be possible that your party is on the tour on your own. Higher numbers make for a more sociable experience, lower numbers make for more personalised attention from your host. Look at it as a win/win!
If we can accept children there will be an option in the booking flow. However for many trips our local hosts take the decision, based on the content of the tour, to open this up to adults only. If you are looking to travel with under 18’s, please feel free to contact us and we can discuss your options.
Our local hosts will do everything they can to cater to travellers’ needs. It’s a good idea to share your requirements at the time of booking so that our host is able to make the required preparations
In order to keep the costs low we always offer prices based on 2 sharing.

If you wish you may pay a supplement for a guaranteed single room. Simply make your booking as normal and get in touch with us to arrange this.
