An exclusive, free display celebrating one of the city's most iconic sporting heroes, both on and off the pitch
From this summer, the Museum of London will celebrate one of the city’s sporting heroes with a new display on the world-leading striker and England captain, Harry Kane.
Through his story of persistence, hard work, resilience, and sporting achievement, this free display curated in collaboration with Harry Kane will aim to inspire the next generation, encouraging visitors of all ages to be their best and never give up on their dreams.
Harry Kane: I want to play football brings together rarely-seen personal items, family photos and iconic objects to document Harry's career so far: from his first club, to winning golden boot awards and being named England captain.
Kane is renowned for his formidable goal-scoring record, but making it to the top hasn't always been a given. Using personal insights from the player, the display explores the setbacks and successes that have defined the 28-year-old’s career to date, as well as his determination to succeed at the highest level of the game.
Exclusive items of sporting history memorabilia set to go on display for the first time including:
Alongside personal items, the display will include a changing room space where visitors can listen to Kane’s pre-match playlist. A programme of activities for families and children is also planned to run alongside the free display to engage young people across the country.
