Norwich City icons Grant Holt and Simeon Jackson will reunite for a special evening at the Duke’s Head Hotel in King’s Lynn on Thursday, September 10, reliving their careers in front of Canaries fans. The event, hosted by Sporting Knights, promises an unforgettable night for supporters ahead of the new Championship season, with the club finishing 9th in the 2025 table on 65 points (19W-8D-19L).
What can fans expect from the evening?
Holt and Jackson, two of Norwich City’s most beloved strikers, will share stories and laughs with host Gavin Caney. Holt, who scored 78 goals in 168 appearances for the Canaries, won the club’s Player of the Season award three times in a row from 2010. Jackson, remembered for his hat-trick against Derby County and the promotion-clinching goal at Portsmouth, will join him on stage.
Why is this event special for Norwich City supporters?
The evening offers a rare chance to hear firsthand from two players who defined an era at Carrow Road. Both also had spells at King’s Lynn Town, adding local significance. Tickets start at £20, with VIP options including a meet-and-greet. Doors open at 6pm, with the show running from 7.30pm to 10.30pm.
How does this tie into the new season?
With Norwich City’s 2025 campaign ending on 65 points and a +7 goal difference (63 scored, 56 conceded), fans are eager for fresh excitement. This event, sponsored by ADB Electrical and ScaffCycle, gives supporters a chance to reconnect with the club’s recent history before the new season kicks off.
