The Ozone Complex is situated inside Ormeau Park and has fantastic indoor tennis courts, an intimate gym and laser quest facilities. Throughout the summer season, Ormeau Park holds weekly concerts and band performances in the bandstand, which provides free entertainment to be enjoyed by all. Also close by is the Queen's University PEC, which boasts fantastic sports facilities including indoor basketball/football and a modern gym, filled with the most recent equipment. Nestled in the famous Botanical Gardens the PEC proves a popular venue for exercise.
