The Haymarket: A Cultural Hub in Basingstoke

The Haymarket is a cultural venue in the heart of Basingstoke, offering a variety of comedy, drama, live music and more. The building has a rich history, dating back to 1865 when it opened as the Corn Exchange for the town. It was later converted into a theatre in 1951, and has hosted many famous performers and shows over the years. In 2007, The Anvil Trust took over the lease of The Haymarket, and has since invested in improving the facilities and programming of the venue.
