Closure Announcement – updated 30 June 

Following the Government’s announcement that the reopening of cultural venues can begin from 4th July, colleagues at Sunderland City Council and the University of Sunderland are working hard behind the scenes to ensure the safety of visitors and staff before opening venues in the city, which is likely to happen in a phased way over the coming weeks and months.

Keep an eye out for further announcements here on our website and on our social media channels. Please note, specific venue reopening information will be made available on each venue’s website.

Sunderland Culture is a registered charity. We rely on generous support so that everyone who lives, works or visits Sunderland can experience world-class culture. Making a donation will help to ensure our City’s cultural offer can emerge from this challenge more vibrant than ever.

You can support us by visiting our Just Giving page.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
