What's on in Quebec

Durham, England

Share:

Quebec in Durham is a proper town with a history that stretches back further than most of us care to admit. There are plenty of places to catch a gig or grab a pint without needing to drive all the way to London. The local pubs keep things lively and the community centres usually have something family-friendly going on. You'll find regular theatre shows popping up around town while independent shops often host pop-up markets in the square. Near Here keeps track of what's on so you don't have to waste time hunting for tickets. It's a friendly place where neighbours know each other's names and everyone has somewhere to go.
