Attractions in Holmfirth


From live music to vineyard tours, there’s so much to do in Holmfirth. Best known for being the home of beloved sitcom – Last Of The Summer Wine, Holmfirth is a hive of activity that is thriving. You can explore the sights and locations from the much loved TV Show on the Summerwine Magic Tour. Many descend on our town to see their favourite band or artist. The Picturedrome, has hosted artists such as The South, Johnny Marr and Bastille. In the summer, Holmfirth Vineyard is particularly popular, with locally produced wine, right here in West Yorkshire! Holmfirth is also a popular destination for walkers & cyclists, with the Pennine Way & The Peak District National Park popular destinations.

Holmfirth Picturedrome


The Picturedrome has been entertaining us since 1913. Opened originally as a theatre, The Picturedrome is one of the UK’s best independent live music venues. With artists such as Jake Bugg, Big Country, Martin Kemp and and many more having played shows, it’s clear to see why it’s a Holmfirth institution. Situated right next door, The Old Bridge Inn is the perfect place to stay after a night of music! They are our noisy neighbours and we wouldn’t have it any other way!
