Welcome to Vivacity Bushfield Leisure Centre, a well-rounded sports facility located in Peterborough, United Kingdom. This center offers a variety of activities that cater to all ages and fitness levels, including badminton, squash, football, and indoor games. The staff is friendly and often praised for their helpfulness, providing a welcoming environment for visitors.

Vivacity Bushfield Leisure Centre: Opinions
Negative experience: Website is useless. Doesn't send reset password emails or verification emails when trying to create a new account.
Negative experience: Grandson playing cricket here(visiting team) didnt open changing rooms till half way thru 1st innings visitors fielding 1st so had to get changed outside!!! Then no lights or showers in changing rooms afterwards. Dont go and play cricket there. Awful. Not worth 1 star
Positive experience: Could do with air conditioning as a tad warm in the sports hall.
Positive experience: Went to the lego festival event great
Negative experience: Played on the football pitches at the site and they are in a state of complete neglect! holes in all the fences metal and wood. Nets broken, 3g pitch is a shambles and the outer fencing has holes the size of a barn door. Considering the small pitch costs more than £50 an hour to rent compared to the yaxley 3g pitch which is bigger and in much better condition and a similar age is only £44 an hour it feels like bushfield are taking advantage of being local of it wasn’t for us all living close by I wouldn’t recommend using the facilities! If you have the means to use yaxley or even powerleague I would!
Fantastic experience: Play badminton every week. Does the job nicely!
Positive experience: Safe and welcome place.
Positive experience: Family friendly skating with my wife and daughter was a great experience
Positive experience: I go to this venue a lot. Dissapointed that the disabled toilets are locked all of the day. Not all disabilities are visible.
Fantastic experience: Good facility helpful staff
Negative experience: Booked a class, cancelled without notice despite phoning an hour before to check it was still on. Twice out of four bookings vivacity have cancelled without notice at various locations.

Fantastic experience: Great place albeit missing a cafe. Luckily Starbucks and within 2 minutes walk
Fantastic experience: A very welcoming leisure centre even with a massive kick Boxing tournament echoing around its walls.
Negative experience: Toilets were filthy, used sanitary wear down by the sides of the toilets and no one cleaned them throughout the day. Dirty disgusting!
Positive experience: Only got changed in the changing rooms for football but they were kept clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Very good
Positive experience: Friendly staff.
Positive experience: Gymnasium and playing fields, courts with multiple activities indoors
Positive experience: Not bad facilities
Positive experience: Venue is a Great Venue for Dance Competitions we went there a couple of weeks ago but I was concerned about the roof tiles on the inside of the hall tiles missing guards half hanging off ti name a few faults.
Negative experience: I have been to this place for the third time to play badminton with my friends. Not liking from the first day! The outer space to the courts is narrow, difficult for people who are waiting to play or just watching game. Shower water temperature is NOT warm and pressure VERY LOW, takes ages to wash body! Their car park is also confusing. The main reason I am putting this review today is ️ I have been to this place today and played badminton from 7pm-8pm. I was in changing room and the staff switched off the light. I was shouting from the changing room and no body would response! I had to walk to the reception on my underpant. Otherwise they would have locked me inside and gone home! How terrible are they! In every leisure centre, staff shout 'anybody inside?' Or simply check in before closing! This isn't acceptalble. Instead me, if there was someone with high blood pressure or heart condition, the situation could have ended differently! I WILL NEVER BE A MEMBER OF THIS PLACE! Avoid if you can.

Positive experience: Very clean gym . Good range of equipment. Worth a visit
Positive experience: Got my massage on. It's working...
Negative experience: Not very good, every time me and my friends have tried to book there, there has either been roller hockey training, and however there are always birthday parties and celebrations being held which I don’t find fair considering in the companies name it has the word sports in it and that it’s a sports centre but it seems parties are more important. So I find this very unfair how I do try book there a lot but there are always parties and I thought it was a sport centre.
