Esports Arena London – Staffordshire University: Next-Gen Gaming in the City

As part of the university’s esports and digital media ecosystem, the arena anchors degree-level practicals and external broadcasts, with weekday operating hours and bookings coordinated through the university. The Esports Arena at Staffordshire University’s London campus (located in the Here East innovation campus, E20 3BS) is built as a high-spec gaming facility with full broadcast and event capability. It supports multiplayer gaming setups, spectator seating, commentary desks, and streaming infrastructure—making it well suited for both casual sessions and competitive gaming tournaments. Equipped with professional three-camera production studios, 5v5 multiplayer setups, and space for 30 audience members, it delivers immersive experiences tailored for education and industry-standard events.

As a university campus facility, it is primarily for Staffordshire University London students and staff, with limited or event-based access for external visitors or the community through open days and hosted tournaments.

In addition to the hardware and event readiness, the arena is part of the University’s broader commitment to esports and game-tech education. With the venue integrated into teaching spaces, students have access to industry-grade gaming and production gear, reflecting the university’s push to blend practical skills, event live-streams, and gaming culture under one roof.
