Tynecastle Park
Tynecastle Park has been the home of Heart of Midlothian since 1886. Situated in Edinburgh’s Gorgie district, it is renowned for its steep stands and close proximity between spectators and the playing surface. Extensive redevelopment has modernised the stadium while retaining much of its distinctive atmosphere and traditional identity. The ground is a central part of the local community, with the Hearts support creating a particularly intense environment during important league matches and Edinburgh derbies. Tynecastle has witnessed Scottish Cup triumphs, league title challenges and European fixtures, making it one of the capital’s most significant sporting venues.
