Statement regarding Kettering Leisure Village

28 April 2023

Kettering Leisure Village is one of the area’s premier event and leisure venues and we know how valued it is in the community.

As well as Kettering Conference Centre it comprises Balance Health suite, the Arena and the Lighthouse theatre.

We are keen to ensure that arrangements are put in place so that services can be restored at the facility as quickly as possible.

The council was made aware of the intention for Kettering Leisure Village to close on Wednesday 26 April and we are now working with all concerned to review our legal position regarding contractual arrangements.

It is not possible to make any further comment at the moment.Cllr Helen Howell, North Northamptonshire Council’s Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Sport, Leisure, Culture and Tourism

North Northamptonshire Council leases Kettering Leisure Village from BQ Farms, an arrangement which was inherited from the predecessor authority, Kettering Borough Council.

The council has a contractual arrangement with Phoenix Leisure Management, which further sublet KLV to Compass Group Services.
