Heydays is the largest and longest-running arts programme for older people in UK theatre.

With opportunities to try everything from drama to dance to play reading and creative writing, supported by a team of professional artists, Heydays is a vibrant, creative community where skills are developed, and stories are shared.

The Autumn term of Heydays has now finished for the Christmas break. Our Creative Ageing Takeover will continue every Wednesday from week commencing 19 January, bringing people together for friendly, creative activities led by us and partners from across the city.

The programme will be new for the Spring 2026 term, with an updated range of activities available. We will have more details soon.
