Out There Arts

Out There Arts is a National Centre for Outdoor Arts & Circus based in Great Yarmouth, but collaborating internationally. A registered charity and Arts Council funded National Portfolio Organisation, we present the yearly Outdoor Arts Festival every Spring/Summer, alongside year-round programming across multiple flexible use venues. 

Throughout the year, we work on a number of projects, sometimes intimate, sometimes immense – but always inspirational!

Our hub of activity gravitates around the Drill House and the Ice House, Grade II listed historical buildings with unique characteristics. 

The Drill House                                                                          Dating back to 1867, this storied structure is our home base. Always ready to undergo transformations at the drop of a hat, the multi-use venue is perfect for community engagement, events and corporate meetings, conferences, parties and weddings.
