Four floors of football history with penalty simulators and the actual 1966 World Cup ball that'll make any fan weak at the knees.

You'll walk past the Pele Wall of Fame and immediately know you're somewhere special. The ground floor hits you with interactive penalty shootouts and speed tests that'll humble even the cockiest Sunday league player, while upstairs houses treasures like England's 1966 World Cup shirt and the oldest surviving football from 1540.
The Hall of Fame genuinely moves you – seeing George Best's boots next to modern legends creates this brilliant timeline of the beautiful game. Kids absolutely lose their minds in the discovery zone, but honestly, adults get just as geeky over the tactical touchscreens and match analysis tech. It's proper football nerdery at its finest, and the views over the city from the top floor aren't bad either.
