EXETER City Football Club’s annual Party at the Park celebration is set to return.

Taking place on Saturday, June 28 at St James’ Park, the event is free to attend, open to all, and will raise funds for the Exeter City Community Fund, supporting regional and international charities.

The party kicks off at 11am (gates open at 10.30am) and promises a full day of family-friendly activities, live entertainment, and community spirit. Held in partnership with Nevada Construction, the event will include fun and games, food and drink, live music and player experiences throughout the day.

A major highlight will be the official launch of the new Exeter City 25/26 home shirt, with appearances from both the men’s and women’s teams. Young fans will even have the opportunity to train with the women’s team on the inflatable pitch at 1pm. Club mascots Grecian and Lexi will also be making special appearances.

Musicians and bands appearing during the day include: Phil Smyth, K2 and Taylor’s Wift. The event closes with a set by ABBA tribute band, Take a Chance on Us.

Visitors can enjoy a packed schedule of activities, including street soccer and inflatable challenges; the Junior Grecians Family Zone with games consoles, table football and a big screen; face painting, stalls, competitions and games; displays from Devon and Cornwall Police and Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service; and a grand raffle with amazing prizes, for which tickets will be available on the day.

Food and refreshments will be available throughout, including a bar, ice cream and candy floss.

The seven organisations set to benefit from this year’s Exeter City Community Fund are Exeter City Community Trust, Exeter Community Initiatives, Alright Mate? CiC, Exeter Leukaemia Fund, Devon Rape Crisis and Sexual Abuse Services, Refugee Support Devon and the Brazilian charity Onda Solidária.
