Please note – tickets now sold out for this event

 

Those of who witnessed the Chester Legends Night last year will know that it was one of the best social nights staged by Chester fans in decades.

Well this year, we aim to better that, by staging a special event – a celebration of 125 Years of Chester Football Club, and already on the confirmed list backing City Fans United are Blues Legends Stuart Rimmer, Graham Barrow, Milton Graham, and Paul Carden, as well as many more Chester heroes that have already confirmed for the event, and we hope many more will add their name to the growing list.
