Colchester is a great city for sport and leisure activities - whether you want to take part or just spectate.
Discover regular events such as the weekly Park Run in the city's scenic Castle Park, or regular League 2 football in Colchester United's home at the Jobserve Community Stadium.
Or, plan your visit around one of the more occasional events such as the yearly half-marathon, or even the round-the-island sailing race at Mersea.
