A city made for exploring. Past, present and future.
The waterfront and Ocean Village.
The medieval Old Town and historic city walls.
Guildhall Square and the Cultural Quarter.
Independent cafés, restaurants and international food.
Westquay and some of the South Coast’s best shopping.
Live music, theatre, galleries and festivals.
Southampton Common and more than 300 acres of green space.
And the New Forest, beaches and South Coast within easy reach.
Southampton has a cultural side that’s easy to discover. The city’s connection to the Titanic, Mayflower and Spitfire gives it a fascinating story, while the Mayflower Theatre, O2 Guildhall, John Hansard Gallery and Southampton City Art Gallery keep things firmly looking forward. The city also has a packed programme of festivals, live music and events throughout the year.
Some cities give you a great university experience. Southampton gives you so much more.
A lively, welcoming city on the south coast, Southampton brings together waterfront living, brilliant food, culture, nightlife, shopping and more than 800 years of history. You can wander the medieval Old Town, spend an afternoon around Ocean Village, discover galleries and live music in the Cultural Quarter or find your favourite place to eat in Bedford Place.
And when you want to get away, the New Forest, beaches and the wider South Coast are all close by. Compact, easy to explore and full of different sides, Southampton gives you plenty of ways to make university life your own.
University on your doorstep. Southampton at your feet.
