The University of Pisa sporting facilities are among the best in the country and reflect the popularity and significance of sports in the university. This is evident in the wide range of both indoor and outdoor facilities available.

The University Sports Centre of Pisa (CUS) is a member of CONI (the Italia Olympic Committee) and offers a full programme of fitness classes including aerobics, gymnastics, yoga and pilates. The centre has modern facilities and is used by many students.

It is not necessary to pay a membership fee to join the Centre. You can use many facilities for free, and if you want to participate in sports activities led by an instructor, the exact cost will depend on the sport. On average, it will be about 55/60 euros for three months.

Pisa is a small yet culturally lively city which offers various leisure opportunities for university students, who further benefit from discounted rates for many cinemas, theatres and concert tickets.

You can join the University Choir mostly made up of university students but also of teaching and technical/administrative staff. The choir, instructed and directed by Maestro Stefano Barandoni, organizes a Christmas concert every year in which traditional and modern Christmas music is proposed as well as an important concert during the Giugno Pisano.

Students could also join the Centro per la diffusione della cultura e della pratica musicale (Centre for the dissemination of culture and the practice of music), which organizes and coordinates the University of Pisa's Choir and Orchestra activities.

The Centre aims to propagate interest in music, introducing students and university staff to a great choral and symphonic repertoire, symphonic-choral and classical chamber music, as well as to experiences of contemporary music and film.

The Centre organizes social events for the university community and exchange programmes with other choirs and university orchestras.
