What's On

There's never a dull moment in Richmond...

There’s always something to do and somewhere to go in Richmond. With the unique Georgian Theatre Royal plus the award-winning independent cinema at The Station, drama and cinema are well taken care of, and then there’s the sparkling events programme at the Green Howards Museum, as well as Richmond Castle and the Richmondshire Museum.

Right now, we are deep in the varied magnificence of the Swaledale Festival, with many events taking place in Richmond and across the Dales. 

It’s the second week of the festival, and there’s lots to enjoy, from Clare Teal's silken-voiced magic in Leyburn, to the world premiere in Aysgarth of new music inspired by the Dales and its rivers. Just before the premiere, composer Vivek Haria joins Festival patron Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason to discuss the new work and his creative process. 

The Festival closes with the infectious global folk collective Mishra + Deepa Shakthi.

We also celebrate local arts and artists, from a Richmond Chamber Orchestra collaboration to craftspeople rooted in the Dales.

Art, Talks & Workshops, February

The pupils of Hunton and Arrathorne Community Primary School are proud to present an exhibition of their work showcasing their progression in art and design.

Hunton and Arrathorne Community Primary School is a small but highly ambitious school, situated in the village of Hunton. With approximately 90 pupils on roll, the school benefits from a family-feel, where all pupils benefit from highly positive relationships with the staff team. Unusually for a small school, children are taught across five classes which means pupils have access to a high pupil : staff ratio, a comprehensive and engaging curriculum and an outstanding personal development offer which places the child at the centre.

Friday 13th February 2026 for 12 Days

9am - 8pm (7pm Sundays)
