What's On

Leatherhead offers a mix of events from the regular cinema showings in The Theatre to the on-off annual events such as Arts Alive and Heritage Open Days weekend. Within the town centre there are venues for lectures and talks, cinema, theatre, galleries and exhibitions. On the outskirts of the town, other events are offered, such as open-air concerts and theatre at Polesden Lacey and orchestral and chamber concerts at the Dorking Halls. This year we also have the Leatherhead Drama Festival

The area has a long tradition for music and the arts and this is reflected in the range of events on offer during the year. This page provides some details of current events. There is also a facility for submitting details of events that members of the pubic may wish to promote. These will be considered by managers of the Visit Leatherhead web site and can be posted on this page if they are genuinely public events open to all.

The Leatherhead Theatre : 15 October 2008 7:30pm ZU2 This is no typical Tribute show I can tell you!

U2 classics will be perfromed that you may have even forgotten about. We would list the full 2 hour 15 minute set but we want you to have some surprises on the night. So, if you want value for money and to see and hear U2 songs from when U2 started right up to present day, and we do mean present day, then come along and hear us play.  (Booking No. Tickets from the Box Office 01372 365141)
