Signature venue

Cricket in the Heart of Valencia

Cricket has been played at the municipal baseball-softball ground in Section VI of the former Turia riverbed — a nine-kilometre park that winds through the city.

Bat with apartment blocks behind the bowler's arm, then walk to the old town for tapas. Few touring venues combine cricket and sightseeing so naturally.

Cricket bookings, playing surfaces, facilities and fixtures are subject to confirmation with the relevant clubs and venue authorities.
