The Board Room

The Board Room is an innovative multi purpose event space in Torquay, Devon, dedicated to promoting water sports, particularly stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and serving as a hub for the local water sports community. Designed with a SUP/ surf-inspired, chilled, and industrial vibe, the 5000 sq ft space features a coffee, six retail concessions, a hot-desking/ meeting work space, and a 75-seat presentation area. It will host water safety education sessions through the charity Above Water for schools, adventure film screenings, and community talks, while also acting as the administrative centre for major SUP events like SUPTwelve and the SUPER Championships. Developed in collaboration with the charity Above Water, The Board Room aims to position the English Riviera as the Capital for SUP in Britain and water-based adventure sports, fostering both education and sports tourism.

To anchor The Board Room as an essential destination we are offering up to 6 retail concessions of different sizes.
