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.

The Richmond Wander is a stunning way to find out more about our town.

Planes, prisoners, boats, boots, bridges, nurses, Normans, Belgians, castles and trains all feature!

Starting from the museum, you will take a walk round Richmond with your knowledgeable guide, enjoying the scenery but also spotting the clues to its military past.

If you have missed visiting Richmond recently, this is a must. And even if you have been many times before, you’re sure to learn something new about our fascinating town.

The Wander is suitable for all ages. You can’t go very far in Richmond without encountering a hill, so if you are thinking of booking this event, please ensure you are able to walk comfortably on and off for about an hour.

Call 01748 826561 or pop into the museum to book.
