Old Trafford opened on 19 February 1910, and Manchester United marked the occasion by losing 4–3 to Liverpool. It was not an auspicious start for a ground that would go on to become the largest club stadium in the UK, with a capacity of over 75,000.

Bobby Charlton gave it the nickname "the Theatre of Dreams," though the stadium has seen its share of nightmares too. German bombing during the Second World War destroyed much of it, and the surviving players' tunnel from 1910 was later renamed the Munich Tunnel, in memory of the 1958 air disaster.

VoiceMap's walking tour circles the full perimeter of the stadium, tracing the club's rise through stories of its greatest legends, including the Holy Trinity statue of Charlton, George Best and Denis Law, who scored 665 goals between them, and the stands named for Busby and Ferguson.
