Our Story
Grandstand Editions was born from my lifelong passion for football programmes, memorabilia and the stories that make the game special.
In 2026, when my club, Port Vale, reached a historic FA Cup Quarter-Final against Chelsea, I felt the occasion deserved to be preserved. I designed a limited-edition commemorative badge for friends and family, inspired by the last meeting between the clubs in the 1920s and the great tradition of FA Cup collectibles and matchday souvenirs.
What began as a personal project quickly found an audience online, proving popular with supporters of both clubs. Requests soon followed from Chelsea fans hoping to mark their FA Cup Semi-Final, and from there Grandstand Editions was established.
By day, I work in luxury brand marketing and communications and live in London with my young family. Away from work, I am a passionate collector of vintage posters, historic photographs, sporting memorabilia and other objects that tell a story about the past. That same appreciation for craftsmanship, presentation and provenance informs every Grandstand Editions release.
Today, each edition is produced in limited numbers, designed not to replace official merchandise, but instead provide an artistic and designed object that transforms stadium moments into collectible keepsakes for generations.
The occasion, preserved.
