Formed in 1869 by a group of sporting enthusiasts, who initially played a crude form of rugby football, Kilmarnock F.C. was eventually constituted in 1872. This exhibition of the Mother Club of football in Ayrshire takes us on a journey from the early days of the club’s construction to the present day. An exhibition that will have all football fans’ attention with the historical items and memorabilia on display. Kilmarnock season ticket holders will get a 50% discount upon entry when they show their season ticket at our reception.

Please note, this exhibition will close late summer 2021.

The Scots created curling. They wrote the first rules and standardised the stones and the size of the rink. They made its language, from the hog to the house, and they gave it to the world.

This exhibition was based on the collection of the late Sheriff David B. Smith which he left to the Scottish Curling Trust in 2015.
