Newcastle United fans getting a chance to visit.

The club announcing on Thursday morning: ‘Newcastle United will place supporter tributes to Kevin Keegan on public display at Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art later this month, giving fans and the wider community an opportunity to reflect on the life of a North East icon. Thousands of supporters paid tribute to the Magpies legend following his passing, leaving heartfelt messages, shirts, scarves and mementos outside St. James’ Park. The club’s opening Premier League fixture against Liverpool, another of Keegan’s former clubs, also provided an emotional opportunity for supporters to come together in remembrance.’

The window of opportunity to visit the special Kevin Keegan tribute is the weekend after next, the club detailing: ‘Now, those tributes will form a free public display at Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art on Saturday 31st October and Sunday 1st November, offering visitors the chance to honour a figure whose influence on Newcastle United and the region spanned generations.’

Newcastle United explaining what the event will contain:

‘The display will feature tributes created by the club and supporters in memory of Kevin Keegan, including:

The centre-circle banner: The 17.5-metre banner, designed by fan group Wor Flags, using over 500 football shirts and handwritten tributes left outside St. James’ Park.

Newcastle United staff and volunteers plus Baltic Crew will be on hand throughout the weekend to assist visitors and facilitate the experience.’

Brad Miller is Newcastle United’s Chief Operating Officer: “The tributes left following Kevin Keegan’s passing touched millions around the world, with more than 52,000 fans uniting at St. James’ Park to pay their respects during our opening fixture against Liverpool. This display offers an opportunity for more fans and the wider public to view those tributes up close, reflect on Kevin’s extraordinary impact, and celebrate the legacy he leaves for generations of supporters. It also ensures that our fans’ heartfelt messages are carefully preserved, honouring a truly legendary figure.”
