Brewery Arts Centre

Who says the Lake District is all about hiking and the outdoors? This part of Britain is every bit as rich in cultural activity as the northern powerhouse towns that lie to the east and west of the area. The Brewery Arts Centre is known nationally as a centre for world-class theatre, music, art and events. It has a 450 capacity music venue, three cinemas and two visual arts galleries. There is a 200 seat theatre which has been home temporarily to some of the nations most loved entertainers and performers.

Along with a great restaurant and bar area, the Brewery Arts Centre is a great location for a night out, while your staying in the Lakes.

Coming up over August are a host of interesting performances:

  • 90s band Cast, once described as a religious experience by their fellow Brit-pop peer Noel Gallagher, perform on the 21st of August.
  • As of Wednesday the 26th of August, The Royal Shakespeare Company’s live screening of Othello will take place.
  • The eagerly anticipated ‘Straight out of Compton’ film based on the story of hip-hop legends N.W.A, will also play as of Friday the 28th of August.

Situated near Kendal, The Brewery Arts Centre is only 10 minutes from Junction 36 of the M6 Motorway. It really is a must visit place, during your stay in The Lakes.
