Football was also played at two earlier exhibitions in Edinburgh (the International Exhibition of Industry, Science and Art in 1886 and the International Exhibition of Science, Art & Industry in 1890), although these took the form of a series of single matches (with a cup and medals awarded for the winners of each) rather than a knockout tournament.[9]
All matches played at the exhibition's sports grounds at The Meadows.[9]
