Aylesbury Waterside Theatre

Inspired by the rolling Chiltern Hills, the Aylesbury Waterside Theatre can be found in the heart of Aylesbury.

In a town with a long history of theatre at its roots, Aylesbury Waterside delivers a programme of diverse live entertainment and has marked the start of the town’s regeneration. The theatre has attracted international interest in the world of construction and architecture as a landmark building, and boasting a dynamic and diverse programme of live performances, visitors can enjoy world-class entertainment including electrifying West End productions, unparalleled comedy, stunning dance and the best children’s shows.

Much more than just a theatre, the multi-functional venue can accommodate conferences, meetings, Live Screenings and more intimate performances in the Second Space, alongside weddings, workshops and art exhibitions.

We look forward to welcoming you and hope you enjoy the Waterside experience!
