Darlington Arts Centre is housed in a splendid Victorian Building. It is a lively bustling venue hosting arts events and activities for all ages and interests at all times of the day and night. Regular activities include children's holiday workshops, film, theatre, dance and music.

Formerly a teacher training college, Darlington Arts Centre is one of the top regional arts venues.

Over the last 25 years alterations and improvements have taken place, providing a venue that hosts a range of events, entertainment and attractions.
