St James' Park offers Fathers' Day tour with a free pub lunch to follow

A special behind-the-scenes tour at St James' Park is being aimed at dads this Fathers' Day - or rather at those looking to buy their parent an extra-special treat.

The home of Newcastle United will be hosting a tour - followed by a free meal offer - which is bound to prove a winning gift for any football fan.

Taking place on Father's Day itself , June 16, it will involve a behind-the-scenes look at the famous stadium which captures the history of the city club's home since 1892.

Visitors will learn about the club and its heritage from the tour guides and specially-designed location boards and there will be plenty visual and audio effects to enjoy to enhance the experience.

It costs £15 for the tour and dads can then eat for free at the popular Nine Bar if accompanied by their full-price paying offspring (or other adult).
