The Courtyard is Herefordshire’s centre for the arts. We provide a space for innovation, creativity, and participation for the whole community. The Courtyard is an accessible building and offers good, free ease of access to all front-of-house areas. There are numerous access features that are regularly updated and adapted. The organisation works to be as inclusive and welcoming as possible. It is also the main presenting venue for Borderlines Film Festival, the largest Rural Film Festival in the UK. Annually, The Courtyard hosts many local community companies as part of its programme of work. Including X-entricity, Hereford Musical Theatre Company, Hereford Pantomime Society, Hereford Academy of Dance, The Gilbert & Sullivan Society and many more. The Courtyard runs a very successful bar and catering operation. They provide high-quality, locally-sourced and produced food in an attractive setting. Many customers choose to eat in the Café Bar prior to a show or film. Others appreciate the light, open space as a place to enjoy lunch with their friends.
