The exhibition honouring the life and career of the former Manchester United and Northern Ireland player will be accessible to the public on Tuesday, July 23 at Coleraine Town Hall.
With the help of the Gregg family and Maurice Bradley, this exhibit, which opens in time for the SuperCup NI later this month, will chronicle Harry's development from a small child growing up in Windsor Avenue, Coleraine, to becoming one of the finest goalkeepers in the world.
The exhibition honours Harry's football career, from his early days playing for Coleraine F.C. and Linfield Swifts to Peter Doherty's 1952 signing with Doncaster Rovers, which launched his career internationally.
Causeway Coast and Glens Museum Services is pleased to announce the launch of a new free exhibition entitled Harry Gregg: Dare to Dream, based on the life and career of footballer Harry Gregg OBE.

It includes never-before-seen photos and artefacts from the Gregg collection. Harry would go on to play 25 caps for Northern Ireland and become a legend at Manchester United.
Harry will always be remembered for his extraordinary bravery in saving his surviving colleagues, Vera Lukic and her 2-year-old daughter Vesna, during the Munich Air Disaster in February 1958.
He was regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers in 1958, the year of the World Cup.
