Blackpool FC have launched a special limited edition shirt to celebrate 125 years at their Bloomfield Road home. The commemorative kit goes on sale on August 29 and only 1,901 units will be produced. This season marks the anniversary of the Seasiders moving permanently to the stadium in 1901. The club currently sits 6th in the League One table with four points from their opening two matches, scoring three goals and conceding two.
The design aims to capture key elements of the club's long history at Bloomfield Road. Specific details on the shirt reference the stadium itself, historic versions of the club crest, and the year 1901. Ross Morgan, a club official, explained the significance. "Bloomfield Road is more than just a football stadium," Morgan said. "It has been our home for 125 years and is a huge part of what makes Blackpool FC what it is today."
This limited run makes each shirt a collector's item. The club is two points behind league leaders Bradford City in the early season title race. Fans can check the team's progress on our standings page throughout the campaign.
The anniversary shirt will be available for purchase both online through the club's official store and in-person at physical retail locations. Sales begin on Tuesday, August 29. The extremely limited production number of 1,901 directly echoes the year Bloomfield Road became the club's permanent base. Morgan highlighted the exclusivity. "With only 1,901 shirts being produced, this is a really special piece of Blackpool FC history," he stated.
This release comes as the team prepares for its next League One fixture, an away match against Barnsley on September 2. Barnsley currently occupy 21st place in the table. Supporters can view the full schedule on our fixtures page.
The shirt launch coincides with the start of the 2026-27 campaign where Blackpool have begun with a win and a draw. Their recent form reads WD, giving them a positive goal difference of +1. The club will be looking to build on this solid start as the anniversary celebrations continue throughout the season. The team's offensive and defensive records are available in more detail on our stats hub.
The focus now shifts to maintaining their positive early season momentum. The commemorative shirt serves as a tangible link to the club's past as the current squad writes its own chapter. The immediate footballing challenge is the trip to face Barnsley, a game that offers a chance to climb the League One table further. Balancing celebration with competition will be the theme for the Seasiders in the coming weeks.
