SportPark 4 opens after £6m Getting Building Fund investment

SportPark Pavilion 4 has been officially opened following a prestigious opening ceremony by Dame Katherine Grainger – the Chair of UK Sport and one of Britain’s most decorated female Olympians.

An award-winning development offering a high-quality environment that encourages partnership working, sharing of best practice, collaboration and innovation. The project team gathered to celebrate the opening of the £9m expansion of SportPark and aims to build on the town’s reputation for sporting excellence and to confirm Leicestershire’s leading place in the sports economy.

This project completes the SportPark development by constructing Pavilion 4 – a 2,000 m2 extension included in the original building design. Pavilion 4 will provide specific space to enable the growth of the successful sports cluster at Loughborough University Science and Enterprise Park (LUSEP), and is the university’s first Passivhaus development, one of only five Passivhaus Certified office buildings in the UK.
