Upton Park (Boleyn Ground)

Home to legendary East London football team West Ham United since 1904, Upton Park (Boleyn Ground) stadium has seen its fair share of top-level football over the years, but fans wanting to experience a match at the iconic grounds will need to book their tickets quickly. The Premier League team has just one more year left at Upton Park, before moving to its new home - the state-of-the-art London Olympic Stadium in nearby Stratford, where they’ll kick off the 2016/17 season. 
With its destruction date looming, 2015 will also be the last chance for fans to tour the 35,016-capacity Upton Park stadium, with its distinctive mock castle towers that flank the entrance and famous statue of West Ham player and England captain Bobby Moore, who saw his team to victory in the 1966 World Cup.
