Venue Information

As a former church, St Mary’s “on the hill” is not only a beautiful building on the outside, its equally stunning and impressively spacious interior also offers an extraordinarily atmospheric creative environment, whether for large dynamic groups, or the smaller ensembles who enjoy the focus of its quieter corners. The marvelous acoustic is well-suited to musical and theatrical performances.

Where is St Marys?
St Mary’s is at the top of St Mary’s Hill next to the Cheshire Regiment’s museum and just behind Castle Square (where the Castle, Crown Court and University of Chester’s Riverside building are situated). A former church, it has a distinctive tower.

Where do I park?
St Mary’s is on the edge of Chester city centre so most car parks are possible. The nearest car parks are Castle Square (only available for public parking in the evening, Monday to Friday, and all weekend) and Little Roodee. Castle Square is free after 3pm and £5 during the day on Saturday and Sunday; Little Roodee is pay and display.

There is ample parking in the large Castle Square car park in front of the Crown Court building Mon to Fri after 3pm; Sat and Sun £5 to park until 3pm, free after 3pm. Alternatively, the Pay & Display at Little Roodee is the closest option (£1.50 after 5pm, £4-5 other times). Once parked, just follow the path through the gap to the left of the Crown Court building and you will see St Mary’s on your right.

The venue is accessible for wheelchair users and there is a disabled toilet. There is no induction loop.

Travel Information: 

Getting Here by Road or on Foot
Entering Chester from any direction, look for the brown signs to Chester Castle or the Grosvenor Museum and use our map to locate St Mary’s. The palisade at the University of Chester and Crown Court building entrance and the circular HQ building opposite are distinctive landmarks which should help you find us.
