    I've been to Murrayfield a few times for Scotland rugby games over the years and this time we headed along for the Edinburgh v Glasgow clash in the 1872 cup (which sadly Glasgow lost!). So some plus points about Murrayfield - the new tram stop makes getting to the ground infinitely easier than it used to be (even if they are super busy!), there is never a bad seat in the venue, seriously you get a good view from everywhere! And lastly the food choices here are pretty amazing. Now to the bad points, of which there are a few. The bars are quite far away from the seats - although they do offer a good choice and are the average prices for rugby grounds. My biggest problem has to be the toilets, of which I can only speak for the ladies. Old metal toilet bowls, with drilled down half wooden seats. Not the height of luxury by any stretch, and all capped off with only COLD water to wash your hands. I'm sure murrayfield was renovated not so long ago, clearly the toilets were overlooked!

    As I said in the previous review, I was attending Murrayfield for a football match; going for a Rugby game, and a game against New Zealand was a whole new kettle of monkeys, if I can mix my metaphors. As a rugby stadium, it's so much more fluid, there's more food trucks, more entertainment and things to see and do inside the gates and much more orientated towards a happy experience - a radio set is offered for you to listen to the referee's calls if you want for a fiver! The atmosphere was astounding. Simply astounding. I would go as far as to say that you have to experience it if you're any sort of sports fan or super patriotic towards Scotland in any way. The build up that the SRU put on before kick off left goosebumps on my arm. Seriously - nab a ticket for a Scotland match and turn up in plenty of time to soak it all in. One of the most memorable experiences I've ever had at a sports event. Just fantastic.

    I have not been to many rugby stadiums in my time, but have been to dozens of football stadiums and I can confirm that this place is a seriously good venue to watch any sporting spectacle. For such a big stadium, you feel really close to the action, no matter where you are sitting and before the Scottish rugby you are given a cultural show beforehand which sets you in good stead for the ensuing match. The ticket prices are fantastic when you compare them to football matches and if you are a student you can get some really cheap seats. Last year i was able to see Scotland host Italy for only £10. What's more is that the stadium has some of the best food and drink stalls offering a variety of different food and although the prices aren't terrific they aren't horrendously bad, which most major stadiums are.

    Murrayfield is a bit of a legendary sporting venue, accommodating Edinburgh's love of a good rugby match. All of Scotland's major rugby matches are played here, and the Murrayfield area is always buzzing with people around the time of the Six Nations, and any other major rugby event for that matter. The stadium is large, to use a probably underwhelming word, as it's tricky to do a stadium justice unless you actually go and witness an event there, and it has a capacity of over 67,000. If you've not got time to go and see a match here, and you just fancy a peek round the stadium, tours are relatively cheap, and you can get more info on the website. Seeing as I'm not the biggest rugby aficionado in the world, I'd probably be more inclined to go and see something of the musical variety at Murrayfield. The most recent gig I saw here was Oasis, which was rammed to the highly numbered rows with people wanting a peek at the Britpop legends. A great venue to behold one of my favourite ever bands, and I'm glad I got in there when I did, seeing as they've now split up, sob.

    I spent an hour agonizing over the best seats to choose for the France-Scotland match, as I wanted to get good value for money! All this proved futile, because when we arrived, charged and covered in face paint (I diplomatically had both teams' flags on either cheek) we realized it's a rare seat in this stadium that would give a bad view. Now whilst this is great news, it also means that some seats are a little too far away even if one can see the whole playing field. The sheer size of the stadium meant that it took a five minute walk just to get to the west stand! Finding the seats would have been even more difficult with the endless rows and rows, but thankfully some nice staff on hand directed us to them. The atmosphere was brilliant with a lot of French support ..."Allez les bleus!" resignated throughout the stadium, and I have to say I joined in and wasn't very loyal to my adopted home team. However, the match subsequently settled hit a bit of a lull, but I suppose it wasn't the stadium's fault! The ticket shop was efficient, the seating areas were extremely clean and there were food stalls outside in case anyone got hungry. I will say that they definitely need to invest in more toilets, because during the break (France was winning and the Scottish flag had been tactfully wiped off my face) the line was ridiculously long. Any one in desperate need would have had to forfeit a lot the match! Otherwise, nice stadium, much bigger than I expected and conveniently served by a few bus lines from the city centre!

    If you do want to come here, then ideally you want to come for a rugby game, simply because that is the sport this stadium was built to show and when you do decide to come you'll find it won't cost you much to do so even during the Six Nations. You do get football games here, most notably for any European cup runs the Edinburgh teams might be having, but really this place deserves to be given the chance to show you a decent rugby clash. Even if you are not a great sports fan, watching a game at a stadium like this is not the same as watching it on the telly - it really is a completely different prospect. Instead of being solely about watching the game it's all about the atmosphere and during Six Nation clashes the atmosphere really is electric. On these days the stadium does deliver all it promises and if you get the chance to see a Scottish game here, do take the chance.

    Murrayfield is an awesome stadium; I've been there on many occasions, and whether I was there for the rugby, football or concerts every time it's been brilliant. You can't beat sitting in the middle of 70,000 fans watching a Scotland rugby international with 'The Flower of Scotland' ringing in your ears. One word Goosebumps. The stadium is also home to the Edinburgh Gunners. At all the events I've been to the staff have always been friendly and helpful, the only criticism I do have is the food and drink is quite pricey and not really value for money, but then personally I don't go for the food. I've also been to a few functions (xmas parties and work events) and found the venues pleasant and the staff courteous You can also take a tour in the stadium where you get access to areas you wouldn't normally see i.e. team dressing rooms, trophy room etc Murrayfield is a brilliant venue for sporting events and concerts and there is always a fabulous atmosphere.

    it was my first visit to Murrayfield since the late 80's for a 6 nations match. hallelujah we won! I was very impressed by how it has changed. I know it was a huge game but the pre-match entertainment and stalls just outside the arena made for a fun walk round. Only in Edinburgh would you have the oysters and champagne bus, can't remember seeing that outside Hampden . The beer was also reasonably priced with a pint of Tennants £4.60 (I know, it's Tennants but that's not a bad stadium price). There are a lot of stairs but I'm sure, if you ask, there will be more accessible routes. It was family friendly (no-one drunk or constantly swearing) and with both sides mingling it would be a good family day out. The toilets are basic but as there are loads of them you don't have to wait too long. With around 68,000 seats it's a decent size and I think your get a good view anywhere though they do have large screens and you can buy ref radios (£5) if you want to hear then discussing their decisions. A grand day out.

He was set on getting a Heart of Midlothian Football Club jersey as a souvenir from Edinburgh and so we decided to head to the stadium's gift shop which is what this review will be based on. Their team store had possibly some of *the cutest* merchandise I've seen for a football club in terms of merch for the little ones. There were west highland terrier, dinosaur, and bear shaped stuffed animals. They had pop it toys, adorable westie pencil cases, and clothing just to name a few. For the older crowd, they had a wide range of items that included your typical jerseys, keychains, apparel to nicer items like stainless steel water bottles, coffee mugs and tumblers, and a mix of candies. They didn't have my husband's size available in the jersey that he wanted, but he was able to snag some shorts as a souvenir which is a successful trip in my book! Definitely recommend a stop here if you're a football fan and wanting some Heart of Midlothian souvenirs!

First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I believe that other than Celtic Park, Tynecastle is up there with Dundee United as the most intense atmosphere in Scotland. I've now seen 4 games here (including one when I was still a teenager), and it's left a permanent mark on me. It's a thrill to be in here. It's dark and imposing, it's intense and cauldron-like. It's the heart and soul of Edinburgh football. Everyone was very nice to me (even Hibs fans in town), and I can't think of a club other than the Old Firm and DUFC that inspires more intense passion from supporters than HM1874. Yes they have been around that long. I was most recently here at Tynecastle just last year in late 2014, and will be visiting again in 2016. It needs a bit of a facelift but it's still 5 stars all the way from me. So when I was doing my first tour of Scotland in 2011, I also hit up every single stadium in the country. My obsession with footy (soccer to Americans) is the reason. Every stadium review - like all my reviews - are based on first-hand personal experience, usually from multiple visits. As recently as Fall 2014, when I was "stuck" in UK for 3 months, I went to most of them yet again while travelling. I have pictures of me at many of them, which I will post later. Also, when back in Scotland I plan to take more pix, and add more stadia! So watch this space! *** return to regular review *** Anyway, Tynecastle is one of the great stadiums of British football. It's grand and intense and has a wonderful atmosphere, with the third highest average crowd of any club in Scotland. It probably has the best atmosphere of any club in Scotland. It holds 17k and has been around since 1886. It has a beautiful big illuminated Hearts mosaic badge on the outside of it. Bravo. Scotland played many games here as recently as 2003. In 2004, the owners tried to sell the stadium but the "Save Our Hearts" campaign saved it. In other news, it's Gorgie-ous.

    Horrible, terrible venue for a gig ! Went to see Pink on Friday 28th June…read more Let's start with the seating on either side of the stage (the east and west stands). The seating is so shallow that you're miles from stage and can see very little unless you watch the big screens. Then there's the toilet facilities - I went with my partner and 2 daughters in what was a predominantly female weighted audience and the queues for the female toilets were 20-25 minutes. Not a surprise really as this is a football stadium which, despite recent events, is still a predominantly male attended sport ! Refreshments - well you had to queue twice, one area for alcohol (and water), the other for food and soft drinks ! Seriously ?? And the choice ? Tennents lager (boggin), cider or wine ???? It's dark ages at Hampden !! Finally, it's location. 3.5 miles from Glasgow centre, it takes an hour to walk from the railway station that serves most of the rest of Scotland. Public transport is limited to buses that crawl through the crowd on leaving and a local train that you'll need to queue for an hour to catch and goes to a different station !! Compared to Murrayfield (20 minutes walk to the city centre and 2 mainline railway stations), Sunderland's SOL (loads of toilets right outside the stadium that can be accessed during the gig) and Tottenham (great selection of food and drinks) Hampden is a dinosaur. Artists should avoid at all costs !!

I know there's more to Emirates than that, but I feel like I've properly experienced sporting events here and the arena. And wow, it is amazing. It's new, shiny, clean and pretty industrial looking but without an unpleasant cold feeling to it. The events I've been to here are well organised, there are always lots of staff around who are friendly and helpful. On our most recent visit we got a Clyde souvenir for my nephew back in Australia from the gift shop, the guy working there was really friendly and had good chat. I didn't even mind that they don't have card facilities here yet (it's been open at least 6 months) so you get your card put through the old-school manual machines. It made me laugh to be honest, I did feel sorry for him though as he seemed a bit embarrassed. The velodrome has great seating and is a brilliant place to watch cycling - a sport I previously had no interest in whatsoever, but we thought we'd head along to check it out. The basketball is also really good and has great facilities for disabled seating, you still get a really great view even though you're at the back on the top level. The food and drink is reasonably priced too, not like most other sporting events you go to. I can't wait for the Commonwealth Games and will be vying for tickets to as many events as possible, especially here at the Emirates. I noticed when we were leaving the cycling that they had buses to take people back into town. I have no idea if these are free, but they must be quite handy as Emirates could be difficult to get to otherwise (unless by car). Looking at the website, there is also a Glasgow Life gym here and a spa. It pretty much has everything ... apart from card facilities and a cash machine!
