Torquay United Football Club has confirmed it will host two home matches at Plainmoor in Torquay, Devon, during the 2026 Easter period. The games are set for March 28, 2026, and Easter Monday, April 6, 2026, giving residents a major social activity to attend during the holiday break. This announcement follows the league’s latest schedule review and aims to bring the community together for the festive weekend.
These matches represent a significant milestone for the Bryn Consortium, which is a group of local owners who saved the team from major money troubles in 2024. After taking over when the club was close to shutting down, the group has paid off debts and focused on giving control back to the people. The club expects more than 4,000 people to attend the upcoming holiday games as interest in the team continues to grow.
Manager Paul Wotton has helped the team perform well on the pitch, making them strong contenders for promotion this season.
According to the latest news from Torquay United, the club is also working to grow its community programs to reach 1,000 players every month. There will be fan zones and extra transport support to help families enjoy the match days at the stadium during the holiday. These events are a tradition for the town, especially on the bank holiday Monday when many visitors are in the area.
The “Yellow Army” fanbase now includes over 600 supporters who have bought a small part of the team to have a direct say in how it is run. Historical records from Torquay Fan Stats show that attendance has reached a 20-year high since the community takeover. This growth highlights the stadium’s importance as a central part of life for people in South Devon.
