Exeter City Football Club's much-loved annual community celebration, Party at the Park, returns to St James Park this July, bringing a full day of live music, family activities, kit launches and community spirit - all completely free.

This year's event, which begins at 10.30am on Saturday, July 4, will raise funds for the Exeter City Academy and the Club's partner charity, Exeter City Community Trust, which delivers vital services and activities across the Greater Exeter area.

The entertainment lineup is packed from start to finish. Live music comes courtesy of Be Here Now, an Oasis tribute act, and Carnaby Street, a tribute to the swinging sixties, while the Exeter Starlites Cheerleaders will also be performing on the day.

Families can enjoy a full fanzone with gaming, table football and activities throughout the afternoon. The Club’s car park will be taken over with inflatable challenges, a target shot challenge and an inflatable football pitch. There will be static displays from Devon & Cornwall Police, the Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service, Exeter City Supporters’ Trust, Exeter City Community Trust and the University of Exeter.

Refreshments are well covered – the bars will be open and there will be a Pimm's tent, food and drink stalls, ice cream and tea, coffee and soft drinks available throughout the day.

Supporters will get the first look at the Club's 2026-27 kits at this year's Party at the Park - with the men's home and away kits and the women's home kit all launching on the day.

There will be the opportunity to meet players from both the men’s and women’s teams, while club mascots Grecian and Lexi will be making special appearances throughout the day. Fans can even take part in a kick about with members of the women’s team on the inflatable pitch. Stadium tours, an online auction and raffle will all add to the fun of the day.

Party at the Park 2026 is proudly sponsored by Nevada Construction, Exeter City's new Principal Club Partners. Their support helps make this free community event possible and reflects the shared values of both organisations.
