Bath Skate Park

Victoria Skatepark, located in Bath's Royal Victoria Park, is a vibrant hub for skateboarders, BMX riders, and scooter enthusiasts. This top-notch skateboarding club is thrilled to announce an upcoming local skateboarding event that is sure to ignite excitement among players of all skill levels.

Thanks to recent renovations in 2015, the skate park now boasts a range of thrilling features that cater to the diverse interests of riders. Imagine honing your skills on the series of concrete bowls cleverly embedded in the ground, including an exceptional 'vert' bowl that stands out as one of the few in the entire country. For those seeking to explore different techniques, the park also offers an array of cutting-edge 'street' features.

Designed with the objective of pushing riders' limits, this exciting and challenging space is suitable for both novices and seasoned professionals. The upgrade was made possible through the dedicated efforts of Bath & North East Somerset Council, who invested a substantial sum of nearly £500,000 into the overall improvements of Royal Victoria Park. Councillor Martin Veal, the Cabinet Member for Community Services, highlighted that the previous skate park had served its purpose over two decades but no longer met the needs of the current generation.

The state-of-the-art skate park was meticulously developed following extensive consultations with local youth, children, and parents. By incorporating their valuable inputs, Victoria Skatepark now caters to all small-wheeled sports enthusiasts, making it an inclusive and welcoming space. Offering an outstanding large bowl design alongside an impressive street section, the potential for hosting future professional competitions and attracting riders from across the globe cannot be overstated.

Beyond being a haven for skaters, BMX riders, and scooter enthusiasts, Royal Victoria Park itself is a cherished destination for countless visitors each year. This stunning location encompasses vibrant Botanical Gardens, serene ponds, captivating floral displays, and captivating historical features. Additionally, the park proudly boasts one of the most extensive children's play areas in the entire South West, ensuring that there is something for everyone in this remarkable setting.

For those unfamiliar with skateboarding terminology, a 'vert' bowl refers to a deep bowl with vertical sides. This unique feature at Victoria Skatepark promises an exhilarating experience for riders looking to challenge themselves.

Mark your calendars and prepare to seize the skating spotlight at Victoria Skatepark's upcoming local skateboarding event. It is the perfect occasion to showcase your skills, connect with fellow enthusiasts, and be a part of Bath's thriving skateboarding community.
