Built in 1907, Darlington Hippodrome underwent a £13.7 million restoration in 2016-17. The beautiful 1000-seat auditorium is now nestled amongst a bright and modern café bar and galleries as well as The John Wade Group Lounge, the Living Water Room and a rehearsal studios – all of these spaces are available for hire so you can host your event in unique and characterful surroundings.
What’s more, Darlington Hippodrome sits adjacent to The Hullabaloo, which offers a versatile studio theatre space seating up to 177.
The Hippodrome is a fantastic event venue, not only because of its magnificent style but because it is so accessible in terms of connectivity and accommodation options close by.
