Welcome to Southsea Skatepark

Southsea Skatepark opened in 1978 and is run by a volunteer led charity. This a community hub where people of all ages can be active and get creative taking part in skateboarding, BMX, scootering & more in a safe space in the heart of Southsea in Portsmouth.

The skatepark is a safe space where everyone can be creative, physically active, find new friendships with different peer groups, get inspired, and learn to positively express themselves. The skatepark connects to different community groups, social enterprises, marginalised communities and more and is not just a venue to these sports and lifestyles, but also to the arts and other creative activities too.

Skatepark Store

Since day one we’ve had a in-skatepark store that stocks skateboards, BMX bikes, scooters, safety equipment (pads and helmets) plus loads of different parts and accessories.

The staff are all highly experienced and happy to offer help and advice on the different equipment options and price points available. From beginner to OG, we can help set you up with what you need.

We have a workshop area where we can service, repair and update your bike, skateboard or scooter while you wait. The team is highly skilled and can also offer support on maintenance of your equipment.
