We’re delighted to be returning to Butlin’s Skegness to stage two huge ESF festivals again in 2020, both of which are supported by Leicester City Football Club. 400 girls and boys’ teams and 15,000 people from all over the UK are set to join us again, making ESF Skegness the biggest youth football tournaments of their kind in the UK!
It’s not hard to see why so many teams are queuing up to join us at ESF in Skegness each year. On top of being one of the most prestigious youth football tournaments in the UK, Butlin’s Skegness is without doubt one of the very best holiday resorts around. It’s the perfect combination for an action-packed tour. The resort has a huge variety of sports and leisure facilities, exciting rides at the Fairground, superb entertainment venues, quality accommodation and great places to eat and drink.
The amazing Splash Waterworld is packed with flumes, rides and slides, it’s always a firm favourite for the kids and adults alike. There’s also a variety of live shows, tribute acts, live bands and discos, so your team will enjoy some amazing family entertainment, at no extra cost! If you’re looking for extra thrills, you can pay a small extra charge for activities like the High Ropes, with the excitement of the ‘leap of faith’, Climbing Wall, Go Karts, Quasar, Adventure Golf, Ten Pin Bowling or catch a box office hit at Butlin’s Cinema. There’s even a Spa to help relax and rejuvenate after all the excitement.
Your party are assured of a comfortable stay in a choice of accommodation including new Fairground and Seaside Apartments which are beautifully decorated modern family apartments.
Butlin’s Dining Plans always prove to be extremely popular with our teams. There’s a wide selection of choices available and you can go back for seconds as many times as you like – perfect for hungry young footballers!
