Visit overview

Chapel Arts Centre is programme-led rather than a drop-in museum.

The mapped public approach is at Lower Borough Walls, BA1 1QR, Bath.

Best time to visit

Crowd tips

Foyers and ticket desks are busiest immediately before a start time. Book popular dates in advance and avoid treating daytime administrative opening hours as public performance hours.

Visit highlights

Use the current programme page for the event date, language, running time, age guidance and any interval. Check whether seating is allocated and whether latecomers can be admitted.
