A night to honour it all. A night to kick off the next chapter…
Aston Villa is excited to announce our FA Cup third-round tie against West Ham United will be the club’s dedicated 150th anniversary match.
As we continue the season-long celebration of our beloved club, we’re excited to honour this significant moment in history with our fans, players and custodians of Aston Villa – a night to remember when and where it all began, almost 150 years to the day, with the club’s first ever recorded match taking place in January 1875.
Unai Emery’s side host the Hammers at Villa Park on January 10 (ko 8pm) for what promises to be a special occasion for every Villan, with a Friday night game under the lights at our famous home adding to the spectacle.
Fans from near and far won’t want to miss this – a once-in-a-lifetime celebration at Villa Park.

Alongside the action on the pitch, supporters can enjoy exclusive promotions on food, drink, and retail, making this a truly unmissable occasion. Be there, be part of history, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
The AV150 Honorary Board, which is comprised of former players, managers, community, fan and club representatives, have played a key role in planning the anniversary match.
