Durham Entertainment

Days out in Durham are a hard act to follow, but we like to think our evenings are more than up for the challenge. Entertainment in Durham includes spellbinding theatre and side splitting comedy; intimate restaurants and chic café bars; action cinema; art house film and every kind of music from classical to rock and brass.

Durham’s Gala Theatre and Consetts Empire Theatre both have exciting programmes for young and old alike. While Raby Castle and the Bowes Museum host open air theatre and classical music concerts in stunning parkland settings in the summer.

If you fancy a flutter, head to Sedgefield Racecourse which hosts regular family race days and ladies nights.
