Football pitches at Queen's Sport PEC⚽️

Looking to play football in south Belfast? Queen's Sport at Botanic Park on Stranmillis Embankment has three outdoor 3G pitches set up for 5-a-side. It's a handy one for players in Stranmillis, Botanic, Malone, the Lisburn Road, Ormeau, and anyone coming straight down from the city centre.

The River Lagan and the towpath run along the far side of the embankment. It's a busy part of the Queen's Quarter with the Ulster Museum, the Lyric Theatre, and Stranmillis University College all within a few minutes' walk, and a mix of student housing and terraced streets around it.
