The renowned theatres in Sheffield and Leeds are easily accessible, and here in Penistone itself, the local cinema hosts the Compton Cinema organ, originally installed in the Paramount Theatre, Birmingham, with regular organ recitals.

There are regular concerts at Penistone Paramount while the City Hall in Sheffield, the Don Valley stadium and Hallam Arena host some of the biggest names in rock and pop

During January and February, Penistone and some of the villages put on their own pantomimes, full of local jokes, a contrast to the soap-star productions of the larger theatres.

There are nightclubs and bars in Barnsley, Sheffield and Huddersfield, and quiet country pubs in the villages. Something for everyone.
