Hampden Park is Scotland’s national football stadium and one of the oldest in the world. Its 1937 attendance for Scotland vs England (149,415) remains the European record for a football match. The current 51,866-seat ground is the result of a 1990s rebuild.
What happens here
- Scotland men’s and women’s internationals.
- The Scottish FA Cup Final in late May.
- Scottish League Cup Final.
- Champions League and European cup ties when Scottish clubs aren’t able to host at their own ground.
- Major concerts – Hampden is one of the largest UK concert venues outside London.
- Queen’s Park FC home matches (in lower-league Scottish football).

What’s it like to work here
Hampden’s hybrid identity – national stadium, occasional club venue, concert ground – means casual staff get to work an unusually varied calendar. A typical year might include two Scotland internationals, a Cup Final weekend, four or five club fixtures, plus 10+ concert nights.
