As Brentford FC begins its first Premier League season the Club will remember its past and the role of its fans and the local community. ‘Farewell Griffin Park- the fans story’ will be a special exhibition at the London Museum of Water and Steam, next door to the Brentford Community Stadium. It will be open throughout the Premier League season.

The Brentford Supporters Trust ‘Bees United’ has teamed up with the Club to bring together a century of fan memories about the club’s former home using video, photographs and memorabilia plus the highlights of the club’s own archive. These include four fan collections which have never been displayed before:

The exhibition will also tell the role of fan groups on the journey from Griffin Park to the Club’s new home, the Brentford Community Stadium. The names of early donors to the cause - who included the former player and later TV pundit Jimmy Hill - were recorded on souvenir bricks and these have been discovered and will be displayed. There will also be a chance for selfies in a re-creation of the Griffin Park dressing room and alongside an iconic Griffin Park dugout chair.

The London Museum of Water and Steam will give a special ‘fans for a fiver’ admission price on match-days when the season begins. Admission times and other details will appear on the Museum website waterandsteam.org.uk.
