Queen’s Hall Arts Centre
Across from the Abbey, Queen’s Hall adds a contemporary arts stop to Hexham’s older landmarks. Choose a play, concert, talk or family show from the programme, or look for a current gallery exhibition during its advertised opening. A performance makes a good reason to stay in town after an afternoon of sightseeing; an exhibition is a shorter and more flexible visit.

The practical details
- Where to find it
- Beaumont Street, opposite Hexham Abbey, NE46 3LS.
Directions and arrival information - Tickets and booking
- Most performances require paid tickets; some exhibitions are free. Check gallery dates and hours separately from the show programme. Allow arrival time for finding your seat, and leave a proper meal break before an evening event.
- Access and getting around
- Street-level automatic doors serve the accessible ground floor. Lifts reach the public upper spaces and theatre stalls, but not the balcony. Arrange wheelchair positions, hearing receivers and free essential-companion tickets through the box office.
Official access information - Visiting with children
- Choose the age recommendation and running time of a specific production. Booster seats are available; pushchairs and car seats stay in the designated foyer area rather than the auditorium. Family exhibitions and the foyer art trolley can offer a shorter stop.
