About Us

The Courtyard is Herefordshire’s centre for the arts. We provide a space for innovation, creativity, and participation for the whole community.

As a registered charity we do so much for our community. At The Courtyard you can catch stellar touring shows and in-house productions. We bring you brilliant blockbusters and art-house film. You can come to regular comedy nights from well known names to up and comers. We run inspiring workshops for formal and informal education within the building and out in the community. And there are corporate opportunities for aspiring businesses across the county. You can even hire a meeting room or grab yourself a tasty cake and tea from the award-winning Courtyard Café Bar. While you’re here why not browse The Courtyard Shop – a home for unique gifts, handmade crafts, and artisan creations.
