Eric Morecambe Centre

The Eric Morecambe Centre (EMC) opened its doors to the Harpenden community in September 2021. 

The culture and entertainment centre, was constructed on the site of the town’s former sports facility within the beautiful surroundings of Rothamsted Park.

The Centre includes a 511-seat theatre with state-of-the-art production equipment to allow major touring shows to be staged as well as those put on by local groups.

It regularly hosts live music, tribute acts, comedy, theatre productions, school concerts, an annual Christmas Panto as well as a comprehensive film programme and the venue is used by local activity groups including dance and exercise classes, as well as popular local toddler and pre-school groups.
