Good museum ! Interactive for children. Free entry. A lot of information and interesting for people who are not football mad too!

Bruno Lopes

A lot of great and interesting exhibitions that cover go from the very start of football , all the way to present day. The match ball from the first World Cup Final was definitely my favourite!

Michael Holdsworth

Enjoyed it, but compared to how it was laid out when it was in Preston it seems a bit haphazard. The trophy collection is very impressive, however. Still plenty to see and do.

Great way to spend a couple hours, even if you're not a die-hard fan. My son had extra fun with some of the football drills / exercises.

Phat Buoy

Building should've remained at its spiritual home in Preston. Terrible idea to stick in a city centre and waste Urbis on this. Disgrace.

Roy Shpitalnik

They pay respect to football

Visit Manchester

Kick a football about, surrounded by legends.

Waste of a good building!

Not free anymore.

Un museo normal. Tiene un poco de todo. No me resultó muy entretenido. Puede ser bueno si vas con chicos porque hay algunas actividades divertidas para ellos (pagas).
