Two birds with one stone
1 weekend, 2 dates! We don't often get to open 2 new skateparks back to back, so we're making the most of it! After Beaucaire, the town of l’Isle sur la Sorgue got a great skatepark in midsummer, and now it's time for its official opening. We offer skate lessons there all year round, so feel free to contact us to come and try !
Join us Saturday 30 November from 10am to 4pm for a day at L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue skatepark, at the entrance to town near the Grand Sud parking lot on route de Cavaillon (see what it looks like below—not bad for a little town of antiques dealers!)

Town hall information:
“A first phase of work in 2019: the creation of a new skatepark
With a place that brings people together and encourages expression and encounters, the town of L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue wanted to create a new leisure facility within a suitable urban sports project. Accessibility, safety, compliance, social cohesion and local identity, linked to the youth & sport project, are at the heart of this major undertaking. It is dedicated to freely accessible skateboarding, roller skating, scootering, BMX and related activities.
The facility was conceived as a leisure space open to everyone: participants, families and visitors. It was designed as a welcoming, pleasant place where people of all ages can take part in the permitted activities or watch them.
Designed as a genuine shared public space for children and young people, from beginners to experienced skaters, the site is receiving its finishing touches this autumn: fencing, lighting and street furniture across around 700 m². It includes a street area and an enclosed bowl.
The town of L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue wants to build on the new skatepark by creating a full urban sports park with free public access. It will include a multi-use games area (a local facility for football, handball, basketball, hockey, volleyball or badminton), a pumptrack (a loop of bumps and turns popular with riders) and a playground/wooded park. The project will be funded through investments spread over several years.”
