Touring One of Europe's Newest Stadiums
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium opened in 2019 and is one of the most modern football grounds in the world. The tour gives visitors access to areas normally reserved for players, managers and media, offering a behind-the-scenes look at a building that cost over one billion pounds to construct.
Because the stadium is so new, everything is in pristine condition. The facilities are a significant step up from the old White Hart Lane, and the tour highlights the thought that went into every detail of the design.
Self-Guided Audio Tour
The self-guided audio tour lets you explore at your own pace with a handheld audio device providing commentary at each stop. You follow a set route through the stadium's key areas, pausing where you like and spending as much time as you want at each point of interest.
This option works well for families with younger children who may not want to keep pace with a group, or for visitors who want to linger in certain areas and move quickly through others.
Guided Tour
The guided tour is led by a knowledgeable host who takes a group through the same areas but adds stories, anecdotes and insider details that are not available on the audio guide. Guides often share behind-the-scenes information about matchday routines, player habits and the stadium's construction.
Group sizes are managed to keep the experience personal, and there is usually time for questions at each stop.
What You See on the Tour
Home Dressing Room
The Spurs dressing room is one of the most impressive in English football. Each player has an individual locker with their shirt displayed, and the room is arranged in a specific order chosen by the manager. The tour explains the psychology behind the layout and the pre-match routines that take place here.
Away Dressing Room
The away dressing room is noticeably less luxurious than the home version, a deliberate design choice intended to give the home team a psychological advantage. The contrast between the two rooms is one of the highlights of the tour.
Players' Tunnel
You walk through the same tunnel that players use to reach the pitch. The tunnel is wide enough to accommodate NFL players in full equipment (the stadium hosts American football games) and the sensation of emerging into the vast bowl of the stadium is genuinely impressive.
Pitch-Side
Standing at pitch level gives you a real sense of the stadium's scale. The 62,850 seats rise steeply on all four sides, and the single-tier South Stand towers above one goal. Photographs from pitch-side are some of the most popular souvenirs from the tour.
Press Room
The media centre where post-match press conferences take place is also part of the route. Visitors can sit in the manager's chair and see the branded backdrop that appears on television after every match.
Booking and Availability
Tours run on non-matchdays throughout the year and should be booked in advance through the club's website. Matchday schedules, NFL events and concerts can affect availability, so checking the calendar before booking is advisable.
