EDITORS COMMENTS
Walthamstow Stadium: A Glowing Tribute to Greyhound Racing History This photograph showcases the iconic neon-lit frontage of Walthamstow Stadium, a historic landmark in London's East End. Opened in 1933, the stadium has been synonymous with greyhound racing and excitement for over eight decades. The vibrant pink and green neon signs, which have long illuminated the night sky, have become a beloved symbol of the capital. The colourful lighting not only attracted throngs of spectators to the races but also served as a beacon of entertainment and community. Walthamstow Stadium's neon frontage was a testament to the glamour and allure of the sport, as well as the unique charm of the Art Deco era. Sadly, the golden age of greyhound racing at Walthamstow Stadium came to an end in August 2008. Falling profits and declining attendances forced the Chandler Family, who had owned the stadium since its inception, to make the difficult decision to sell. The neon signs, which had once shone brightly, were extinguished, marking the end of an era. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the history and legacy of Walthamstow Stadium. The neon frontage, with its intricate patterns and bold colours, stands as a tribute to the rich past of greyhound racing, the excitement of the track, and the enduring allure of the sport. The glowing signs continue to capture the imagination, even as the stadium remains closed, and the memories of the races live on in the hearts and minds of those who experienced them.
