The University of Exeter is home to first-class sports facilities, some of the best in the Southwest, making it the perfect location to host major sporting events, elite training camps and visiting sports tours. The Sports Park, located on the main Streatham campus, provides access to high level performance environments, including outdoor pitches, indoor tennis courts, the Cricket Centre and a Fitness Centre.

Whether you’re hosting a national tournament, organising a pre-season training camp or planning a multi-team sports festival, our venues offer the space, flexibility and support needed to perform at the highest level. With on-site accommodation, meeting rooms, in-house chefs and athlete-friendly services, we have everything in place for a self-contained sporting event.

WHY EXETER

There are many reasons why Exeter stands out as an exceptional choice for your next sporting event. Aside from the University, the city itself has a reputation for sporting excellence, which makes Exeter a welcoming host and a natural fit for visiting teams, federations and event organisers.

Which other event venue can boast venues and accommodation surrounded by the ‘best-gardened campus in Britain’ (as described by The Times) and a Britain in Bloom award-winning campus of 300 acres? Not only does this provide ample thinking space but being self-contained means, we also provide seclusion and security, just 10 minutes from Exeter city centre.

As well as the vibrant and eclectic city centre, also on our doorstep are the stunning beaches and moors of Devon, Exmoor and Cornwall, all offering a plethora of activities, scenery and local produce to enjoy in down-time.
