It's been called the 'Greatest Story In Football' - Wimbledon's football club returning to their spiritual home after an absence of 30 years and another meteoric rise through the leagues. You can now experience an exclusive behind the scenes tour of AFC Wimbledon's brand new stadium on Plough Lane.
You'll be guided by one of our experienced hosts, all Wimbledon fans of course, who will regail you with stories old and new, fascinating facts about the stadium and their own experiences of following (and in some cases working for) the Dons.
Lasting approximately one hour, the tours start at the club shop, before progressing into the changing rooms, players' tunnel, and dugouts, providing a taste of what a matchday is really like at AFC Wimbledon. After moving pitch side, our tour guides will take you in front of the Cappagh (West Stand), before progressing to the South London Movers Stand and taking you towards the investor wall which includes the names of all those who contributed to the stadium crowdfunding campaign.
Your tour will then end on a high with a visit to 'The Greatest Story' exhibition.
The exhibition is the home of a unique range of football memorabilia, including medals, trophies, and photos from the remarkable rise through the leagues in the 1980s, FA Cup glory in 1988, our reformation as AFC Wimbledon.
