The List

Aberdeen Sports Village

Aberdeen Sports Village is the premier sport and exercise facility in Scotland, hosting an array of world-class sporting facilities. We exist as a partnership between the University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen City Council, and SportScotland; and as a charity, regulated by the OSCR. We take great pride in operating on a not-for-profit basis, with any surplus income invested back into the facility for the benefit of Aberdeen and the North East. The Sports Centre is near the historic Chris Anderson Stadium and first opened it's doors to the public in August 2009, with our Aquatics Centre opening in May 2014. Since then we have welcomed over 1 million visitors per year. In the last decade we have been fortunate enough to host an array of sporting events, from the European U21 Netball Championships to training camps for Glasgow Warriors Rugby.
