Accent Global Learning commissioned Northern Tours to deliver a bespoke football stadium experience for a cohort of 10 students from the University of Colorado Boulder, providing an in-depth look at two of Liverpool’s most iconic sporting venues: Anfield and Goodison Park. The tour was designed to give the group a behind-the-scenes insight into the history, culture, and significance of both Liverpool F.C. and Everton F.C., while also highlighting the wider heritage of football in the city.

The tour began at Anfield at 1:30pm with a guided walking tour of Liverpool F.C. and the surrounding stadium area. The group visited several key landmarks, learning about the history and fan culture of Liverpool and British football heritage. The visit concluded with time at The Liverpool FC Anfield Store.

After leaving Anfield, the group took a short walk to Goodison Park, passing through Everton One (the Everton Megastore) en route. A private tour of Goodison Park then took place, with access to a range of areas typically reserved for staff, players, and media. Highlights included the press lounges and press box, changing rooms, dugouts, stands and concourses, the players’ tunnel, and the personal stories that can only be achieved with private tours. 

At the conclusion of the tour, the group was escorted to their transport to continue with their onward travel and UK itinerary.
