For a truly special night out, take a look at what’s on at Newmarket Racecourse, where the legendary Newmarket Nights are held. These evening music events allow you to enjoy unique evenings of racing and live performances from big-name artists in this incredible and beautiful setting.

Newmarket Nights
Oliver Cromwells House

Perhaps a Murder Mystery Evening at Oliver Cromwell’s House is more up your thespian street. A fun-packed evening’s entertainment like no other. Afterwards, you can dissect the plot with your fellow sleuths while learning how to shake and make your favourite drinks at a cocktail masterclass led by expert bartenders.

If you prefer a more relaxing sundown, you’ll find a cluster of outstanding, independent restaurants in the district which makes the area a food lover's must-visit. What better than a hearty meal in a welcoming local restaurant or family-run village pub followed by a trip to a beautiful, independent cinema based within a converted Malthouse on the riverside showing a good mix of family, arthouse and blockbuster films.

Boat tour

Or maybe you fancy a sunset river cruise where you get to see East Cambs in a different light while the rest of the world goes by. Try a spot of stargazing on a clear night and take in the sights and sounds of nature at twilight.

After a full day exploring our fabulous variety of attractions, if you don’t want the fun to end, East Cambs transforms at night to offer a diverse selection of evening entertainment to suit everyone. The choice is yours!
