The Hibernian Historical Trust will be holding its eighth annual Open Day at Easter Road Stadium this Sunday as part of the Leith Festival.

Supporters and visitors to Leith will have a unique chance to see behind the scenes of the stadium.

The tours, which are self-guided, offer visitors the chance to explore many areas of the stadium including the Boardroom with its collection of artefacts, the Directors Seating area in the upper tier of the West Stand, Players’ lounge, the Gallery and its unique collection of memorabilia, as well as a visit to the home and away dressing rooms and pitchside where there will be many photo opportunities.

Behind the East Stand visitors can see many poignant memorial stones,and the visit will finally conclude in the concourse of the Famous Five Stand In the Concourse.

As part of the tour Hibs have created a Kids Zone with various activities.

The SWPL Cup and Scottish Cup trophies won by Hibernian Ladies will also be on display.

Visitors will exit the stadium via the Clubstore.

Doors will be open from 1pm, with the self-guided tours starting from Stair 2 in the West Stand.

Admission is free.

There is no need to book, just turn up on the day.
