3 Best Performing Arts in Windsor, The Thames Valley

Windsor's former fire station has a whole new lease on life as a contemporary arts venue, presenting films, theater, music, dance, and comedy, with plenty of events for kids.

Windsor's Theatre Royal, where productions have been staged since 1910, is one of Britain's leading provincial theaters. It puts on plays and musicals year-round, including a pantomime for five weeks around Christmas.

Concerts, poetry readings, and children's events highlight the Windsor Festival, held over the last two weeks in September, with events occasionally taking place in the castle. The festival also runs a smaller program in March, with a focus on classical music events.
