Now, who wants to go to Chelsea?
On 3rd March 1978 Elvis Costello released his song "I don't want to go to Chelsea". But that was before Roman Abramovich invested a little of his fortune to buy Chelsea FC, and now thousands of people want to go there. And now you have the chance too!
Chelsea Football Club's Stadium Tours and Museum, is an award-winning attraction making a superb family day out. The fully guided tours take you behind the scenes of one of the world's greatest football teams, including access to the players' tunnel, dressing rooms and press room. The museum is another fantastic attraction, paying tribute to over a century of history at the club with a host of exciting exhibits, sights and sounds for visitors of all ages to enjoy.

Chelsea FC is also offering Stamford the Lion tours during half-term. Aimed at children, the fun-filled tour with Stamford will take you behind-the-scenes with numerous photo opportunities throughout the tour and a Chelsea FC gift for every child taking part.
The guided tours last approximately one hour (though you are advised to allow 90 minutes) plus whatever time you spend in the museum. They are available every day (except home match days and the day prior to a home Champions League fixture) and start every half-hour from 11am until the final tour at 3pm.
You will experience the atmosphere of walking from the home dressing-room through the player's tunnel and emerging pitch-side to the welcoming noise of a full stadium, and the tour will include the home and away dressing rooms, the press room, the dug-out, pitch-side, and the TV interview rooms, all the time accompanied by experienced, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic guides.
The Stadium Tours and Museum are open all year round, excluding home match days and the day prior to a Champions League home fixture. Please see the price list below, and bear in mind that museum entry is included within the price for those taking part in the guided tours.
