The Founders Trail and Ibrox Stadium Tour 2017 Tour Dates.

[The Moonlighter 387]

We’re delighted to launch our first batch of Founders Trail and Ibrox Stadium Tour dates for 2017.

 

This is our eighth year and the popularity of the Trail continues to soar!

 

Since we first took to the streets of Glasgow in 2009 we’ve taken over 6,000 people on the Trail of our Founders and through the doors of Ibrox Stadium ,many for the first time.

 

Through the education process of the Founders Trail our objective is to safeguard our unique and wonderful history for future generations.

 

So let us Follow Follow in the Footsteps of our Founders.

 

The Founders Trail and Ibrox Stadium Tour dates are as follows:

 

SUNDAY 19TH FEBRUARY

SATURDAY 25TH MARCH

SUNDAY 16TH APRIL

SUNDAY 21ST MAY

SUNDAY 11TH JUNE

SATURDAY 15TH JULY.

 

***Tour dates may be subject to change due to football fixtures***

 

Join us on a journey of discovery back to 1872 when The Rangers were just the dream of a group of young kids who gathered on Fleshers Haugh. They had no ball, no football kit and used a bush on the Glasgow Green as a changing room.

 

Their Club, which they nurtured, was to become the world's most successful and it all happened on the streets of Glasgow.

 

Our day begins at the Founders Trail welcome desk which is located within Bar 72 at Ibrox Stadium from 11.15am on the day of the Tour prior to our 12pm departure from outside of the Ibrox Megastore.

 

Our journey takes us to the area of Fleshers Haugh where The Rangers played their first ever match, we also visit Glassford Street, Union Street, Berkeley Street, Burnbank, Kinning Park, Craigton Cemetery and many other places of interest before finishing off our day with a tour of our magnificent Ibrox Stadium.

 

During our journey we have a 30 minute break at the Partick Bowling Club which is in the shadow of the historic West of Scotland Cricket Ground which was the scene of the Rangers first ever Scottish Cup Final in 1877. This gives everyone a chance to unwind, grab a beer or soft drink and a bite to eat at a beautiful and historical setting.

 

Due to an increase in price of the Ibrox Stadium Tour we’ve unfortunately had to adjust our Tour price accordingly.

You only have to look at first photo to see where Glasgow priorities lie.

The Founders trail being an award winner seemed to escape all the media,so perhaps they should be made aware of the recognition and see what the reaction is.

We are making progress in promoting the Founders Trail via different outlets.

 

But as with everything there is a cost in marketing and some of it financially is out of our reach.
