Gwladys Street's Hall of Fame


Gwladys Street's Hall of Fame celebrates the men who have contributed to the history of English football club Everton. Everton's ground, Goodison Park, is on Gwladys Street in Walton, Liverpool.

Formation

The Hall of Fame was conceived by David France and inaugurated in 1996. Initial inclusion was decided by a panel of players, journalists, shareholders and season-ticket holders who assessed the accomplishments of the candidates during their careers at Everton. It began with 75 players and five club officials. Additional members have been elected by Everton supporters via annual postal ballots and internet polls.
The Hall of Fame has been celebrated annually at the Britannia Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool. After an 8-year hiatus, the Twelfth Hall of Fame Dinner was held at the Liverpool Hilton in March 2017.

Membership

As of 2009, there are 126 members of the Hall of Fame.
Images and biographies of these men are included in the three books associated with the Hall of Fame and a video produced for the 2009 celebrations. The Hall of Fame has been celebrated annually at the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool. These events have provided opportunities for fans to interact with their heroes.
