The Cabot Circusskate park of recent years is returning this October half-term. The shopping destination’s car park will be transformed into a fully functioning skate park for skaters of all ages and abilities.

Taking place between October 26 and November 3, the Level 7 free skate event will be located on the car park’s seventh level and is totally free to attend, though you will need to book a space here. You’ll be able to enjoy a safe, dry and well-lit space, with no cars allowed.

There will be a slow space area where skaters can master their skills at their own pace. There will also be a series of campus lessons and jams, perfect for improving technique and meeting like-minded skaters.
