Fun on the Quay

About

Come on down to Exeter Quayside for an afternoon of free, family-friendly fun as we celebrate the Women's Rugby World Cup coming to the city.

The action starts on the water from 1pm with Dragon Boat racing featuring Exeter Chiefs Women, Exeter Saracens RFC, Exeter Athletic RFC, and Topsham RFC. Back on dry land and there's lots of family activities including face painting, live music, dance groups, Strive '25 T1 Rugby taster sessions, and sporting activities with Exeter City Community Trust. Plus, don't miss out on Sid the Big Dog and Big Chief, dress up activities with RAMM, and much more.

There'll also be a special guest appearance from the French Women's Rugby World Cup team, who will be joining the Family Fun on the Quay. With just weeks to go until Exeter’s opening match between France and Italy at Sandy Park, this is your chance to meet some of the stars representing their country on the world stage.

Whether you're cheering from the riverside for your favourite team or getting involved in the action, this is your chance to soak up the atmosphere and be part of a city-wide celebration.
