Ropetackle Arts Centre is a purpose built venue that attracts fantastic artists from the UK and beyond. We are known for welcoming big names, with an intimate, friendly ambience. A registered charity, Ropetackle is run by a small staff team and almost 80 volunteers. Situated in the heart of Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex, we are proud to be a social and creative hub for the whole community. The superbly-equipped auditorium performance space seats 200, or 350 standing for live music, theatre, film, comedy and dance. A separate fully-accessible mezzanine space is perfect for smaller events, activities or private meetings. A large, light and airy foyer houses our in-house café-bar, as well as hosting launches and community events.
