Match Day Ground Tours
Match Day Ground Tours
This season, comprehensive tours of The Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence will again take place which will reveal the history and mystery of the place that Kent Cricket has called home since 1847.
Led by one of our four experienced and knowledgeable guides, you will visit parts of the ground that other spectators cannot always access, and learn about the people, events – and trees! – that have made our home so famous and well-loved for generations.
