About The Spark, Solent University

The Spark is Solent University's main teaching building, on the city-centre campus beside East Park. Hampshire Chamber of Commerce held its SOGROW summit for about 200 business leaders here in October 2025, and its 'Chamber Connects!' morning networking has also visited the university.

These visitor details were gathered from public sources (Solent University find-us page, Hampshire Chamber news, Parkopedia, bustimes.org, Wikipedia, OSM) on 16 October 2026 and haven't been confirmed by the venue yet. Parking charges, time limits and access can change, so check with The Spark, Solent University before you travel. This is general information, not advice.
