This is Our Story: A Pop-Up Experience from Hearts Museum Joins Edinburgh 900 Celebrations.

Hearts Museum is proud to be part of Edinburgh 900, marking the city’s rich 900 year old history with a special pop-up museum and club store in the heart of the capital this summer.

From Tuesday 1st to Tuesday 8th July, between 10am and 4pm, fans, locals, and visitors can come to see “This is Our Story: A Pop-Up Experience” at the St James Quarter, situated on Leith Street next door to the Mor Bakehouse. This temporary exhibition and shop is part of a larger takeover supported by the City of Edinburgh Council, with contributions from Edinburgh’s Local Heritage Network.

Celebrating Edinburgh as a City of Leisure, the Hearts Museum exhibition pays tribute to Heart of Midlothian Football Club and its pivotal place in the city’s culture over the past 150 years. The exhibition showcases historic images, objects, and stories from the Club’s past, offering fans and history buffs a unique chance to connect with Hearts’ enduring legacy. With a selfie space, dress up kits and activity sheets, bring the kids along too!

The Hearts Club store will also be making a special appearance, with a pop-up shop featuring hand selected merchandise for this event.

Don’t miss your chance to celebrate the beautiful game and Edinburgh’s storied past — all in one spot. This is our City. This is our Story.
