Tonight’s Premier League clash between Manchester United and West Ham United is more than just another fixture — it’s a meeting steeped in English football history, passion, and iconic stadium atmosphere.

There’s something truly special about York in winter. As the days stay crisp and the streets glow with lights, the city seems to lean into its legends a little more—its history, its mystery, and its magic.

StavesArt will be in York during this gorgeous event and we'd love to see you at our stall in the Shambles Market.
