About us
Wimbledon returns to Plymouth city centre this summer with an exciting twist – live tennis screenings and the chance to try one of the UK’s fastest growing sports, Padel, all in one vibrant city centre location.
Watch Wimbledon Live in The Piazza
From 30 June to 13 July, every match of the Wimbledon Championships will be screened live on a state-of-the-art mobile screen on The Piazza. Over 200 deckchairs will be set out in a specially enclosed viewing area, allowing visitors to relax and soak up the electric atmosphere. Entry is completely free, making it the perfect summer experience for tennis fans, families, and city centre visitors alike.
Experience Padel
At the opposite end of The Piazza, visitors can try their hand at Padel – a high-energy sport that blends tennis and squash, played on an enclosed court using solid bats and the court walls.
Padel United UK, in partnership with Plymouth Marjon University, will install a full-size Padel court for the duration of the event. Free sessions will be available for the public to get involved, and spectators can enjoy expert demonstrations from UK Padel players. The booking system will be available soon.
A schools programme will run Monday to Friday, from 10am to 12pm, offering pupils the chance to get active and try something new. Schools interested in booking a free session can contact: holly.reynolds@citycentrebid.co.uk
Wimbledon-themed Food & Drink
No Wimbledon experience would be complete without delicious summer refreshments. A variety of local concessions will be on hand serving up themed treats including fresh strawberries, glasses of Pimm’s or Prosecco, and traditional fish and chips. Sweet snacks and cooling drinks will also be available – perfect for enjoying in the sun while watching the action.
Traders will include Bar Nova's bar trailer and coffee trailer, Glitzy Girls Sweet Treats, Signature Strawberries and C4 Events & Catering
International Market on finals weekend
To mark finals weekend, an international market will take place along New George Street, bringing together global street food, handmade goods, and cultural stalls.
