Hippodrome
Recommended by
Overview
Yarmouth’s Hippodrome, which opened its doors for the first time in 1903, is an institution. Housed in the last remaining purpose-built circus building in England, and one of only a few left in the world, it has a programme of summer circus and water shows that are simply spectacular. In winter you may catch an opera or concert. There’s a small museum, the Hippodrome Circus Museum, where you can see props and old photographs. Opening times are the same as for the box office.

About the area
The North Norfolk Coast is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and probably the finest of its kind in Europe. Here you’ll find a string of quaint villages and small towns – Holkham, Wells-next-the-Sea and Cley next the Sea are 21st-century favourites, while Sheringham and Cromer are classic examples of a good old-fashioned seaside resort where grand Victorian hotels look out to sea.
