Tottenham Hotspur grew out of a cricket club formed by a group of schoolboys in 1882. The club made history in 1961 as the first English side to win the league and FA Cup double, but it has yet to win a league title since the Premier League began in 1992.
Tottenham Hotspur is a Premier League club based in London. Their home ground is the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with a capacity of around 62,850.
The stadium is notable for its South Stand (17,500 seats, the largest single-tier stand in English football), which includes a safe-standing section. Away fans are seated in a corner of the North Stand.
Tickets
The safest way to buy tickets is directly through the club’s official website. Popular matches are often prioritized for season-ticket holders before general sale, so check availability as soon as your travel dates are set.
The golden cockerel erected atop White Hart Lane’s West Stand in 1909 remains Tottenham’s enduring symbol. The club’s ‘Hotspur’ name comes from Sir Henry Percy, a knight famed for his spurs, and official mascot ‘Chirpy’ is modeled after that same cockerel.

💡 Insider Tips
🚌 Getting Around
White Hart Lane station (National Rail, about a 5-minute walk) is closest, with Northumberland Park station (about 10 minutes) also nearby. Free pre-booked shuttle buses run from Alexandra Palace and Wood Green. The Victoria line gets crowded on matchdays, so allow extra time.
🎟️ Tickets
There’s no separate purchase channel for overseas fans — everyone worldwide follows the same process. The One Hotspur membership (£45/year, or £55 for One Hotspur+) is essentially a must, granting priority access and eligibility to use the official resale platform (Ticket Exchange). Games released to General Sale are limited.
🗺️ Tourism Tie-in
The stadium tour is included in both The London Pass and Go City passes, running about 90 minutes. As the world’s first stadium built with a retractable NFL-grade pitch, that feature is reflected in the tour itself, and The Dare Skywalk — climbing 46.8m above the pitch — is available separately.
🎁 Club Perks
The stadium tour’s multimedia guide devices officially support 10 languages, including Korean.
💡 Insider Tips
Beneath the South Stand sits the 65m-long Goal Line Bar, billed as “the longest bar in Europe,” along with its own microbrewery. The brewery side tends to be less crowded right around kickoff.
