Grand Opera House York Box Office: open all year
Goes Down… After dusk, catch a film or see a show. York has two theatres in the city centre and two cinemas, the most central of which, City Screen, enjoys a riverside location with popular café and cellar bar. For live performances, York Barbican stages events for all ages, everything from classical, comedy and sports fixtures to children’s events and rock concerts.
Throughout the year there’s a busy programme of festivals – cultural, culinary and just plain good fun with many of them staging evening entertainment. Hop aboard a ‘sun-downer’ riverboat cruise or dine at one of the city’s many restaurants. More and more cafes stay open into the early evening, among them Bettys where you can sip a glass of wine or cup of Darjeeling to the sounds of the resident pianist. The recently opened Attic in King’s Square serves good coffee and has a selection of fine bottled beers while Café Concerto and Meltons Too combine the feel of café, bar and informal eaterie.
Be assured of a friendly welcome in one of many traditional taverns. With around 365 to choose from, there is one for every day of the year. Call into Visit York’s Information Centre at 1 Museum Street and pick up a copy of the Pubs & Bars Guide.
If you’re feeling brave, no visit to this, Europe’s most haunted city, is complete without embarking on a ghost walk. They are fun, informative and a great way of seeing the city in the evening with most setting off at around 7.30pm.
Parking after 6pm is good value at just £2 for the night and in the run up to Christmas, the Park & Ride buses extend their service to around 9pm. Perfect for a spot of shopping and a light supper.
