Cheltenham was just your average, sleepy town until the discovery of a spring in 1716, after which it became Britain's most popular spa town. (Like Palm Springs without the casinos.) Local Cheltonians have a reputation for being wealthy and respectable, and a walk along the Promenade will give you a first-class view of their wonderful houses, shops and gardens. After taking in the waters at the Pittville Pump Room (great name for a spa), check out the Art Gallery and Museum to learn about the social history of Cheltenham.

Great evening at the everyman, lovely venue and, friendly staff. So easy to park by, we walked down a few steps and we were in the theatre. We were front row of the upper circle, right in the middle, so we had a great view of the stage. Al Murray was very entertaining, and the chandelier was impressive ???? my son had an ice cream which was £3 and very small, but all in all a great evening

The Bacon Theatre is the friendliest place to be entertained. Set on the leafy site of Dean Close School in Cheltenham, we play host to a full professional programme of live music, film, theatre, dance, comedy, plus the idyllic Open-air Theatre Festival.
It was my first visit to the Bacon Theatre’s Tuckwell Amphitheatre for the Open-Air Theatre Festival and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My daughter and I went to watch Dirty Dancing on the large screen and loved it. Even though it’s a film we have seen on countless occasions, the whole experience really added to the night out. From the idyllic setting, to the delicious pizza, everything was perfect. Staff were welcoming and helpful, parking was easy and the whole night was one to remember. We will definitely be coming back next year!

Cheltenham Town Hall was built in 1902-03 in order to provide a venue for the many balls and concerts which made up the town's social calendar at the turn of the twentieth century. Until the year 1900, that role had been filled by the old Assembly Rooms in the High Street, and it was their demolition to make way for a bank that prompted the Council to build a new, and much larger Hall on a new site. The Town Hall, situated on Imperial Gardens in the centre of Cheltenham comprises of a Grand Main Hall, distinguished by its Corinthian styles columns and coved ceiling.
Excellent location to see any play, comedian, show etc. It is central to the city centre, lots of restaurants, pubs nearby. When you go into the hall the period decoration, ceilings and columns simply take your breath away. The only complaint is the seats are a little to close together, so book and end seat or balcony if you like more space.
