Alongside City Hall, sits Salisbury Playhouse. The Playhouse’s varied programme includes plays, musicals, one night events and an annual traditional pantomime. Look out for nearby restaurants that offer pre-theatre dining to help you make the most of your evening out. 

Just a short walk from the city centre and you’ll find Salisbury Arts Centre. Based in a beautiful converted church, the arts centre offers a wide range of thought-provoking exhibitions, performances and workshops plus regular comedy evenings. 

All three venues are used for the annual Salisbury International Arts Festival which brings with it concerts, theatre, talks, dance and much more. 

If you want to catch up on the latest blockbusters then a visit to the Odeon cinema on New Canal is a must too. Plus don’t forget to check out the fantastic historic interior and exterior of this building.
