5 Things to Do Near ABUAD and Federal Poly Ado-Ekiti When Campus Gets Boring
28 July 2026 · Agnix Global
Gaming, paintball, archery, pool and watch parties — five things worth knowing about off campus in Ado-Ekiti for ABUAD and Federal Poly students.
Ado Ekiti has two of the largest student populations in the state between ABUAD and Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti, but the actual list of things to do off campus that aren't just another restaurant or another church program is shorter than it should be. Here's what's worth knowing about.
1. Gaming and esports If you're into competitive gaming, whether that's PS5 tournaments, FIFA nights, or watching esports with people who actually care, a proper gaming space beats playing alone in a hostel room every time.
2. Paintball and archery Physical, competitive, and social all at once, these are the kind of activities that turn a random Saturday into something people actually remember and plan around.
3. Pool and casual hangouts Not every night needs to be a tournament, sometimes it's just pool tables and people to hang out with, which matters as much for a campus town as any of the bigger activities.
4. Watch parties Big matches and events hit different with a crowd around you instead of a phone screen alone.
5. Student and group events Organized nights, tournaments, and community meetups give structure to the social calendar instead of leaving it to chance.
Where this is all coming together
