Took some friends and children,haven't bee for a few years as you have to have the children as an excuse. Jack Jay and Johnny were very funny, every act was excellent,the children loved the motorcyclists how brave are they there act was spectacular the whole show from beginning to end was greeted with cheers.The show was packed so we did have limited seats but we sat up the top and had an excellent view.A little bit pricey at £15 for children and £23 for an adult we got ours from the tourist information office i think they maybe slightly cheaper.We went to the afternoon performance and as it was raining kept the children amused for a couple of hours.

Sarg is a really all round great guy. Nothing is a problem for him. He professionally altered a pair of leather trousers and a pair of jeans for me. He is my first stop for any motorcycle clothing, helmets, gloves etc and he has a huge stock. Highly recommended.

An Absolute Gem Of A "Find" In Great Yarmouth. The Experience Covers The Full History Of The Herring Industry Of Great Yarmouth, With So Much More Included From The Early Bronze Age Through To The Romans (What Did They Ever Do For Us!! LOL). Then Through A Fascinating Exhibition Of Great Yarmouths Connections To The Titanic, Onto The Great War And The Second World War, Culminating In A Star Wars Exhibition. It Is A Vibrant Interactive Experience Certainly Not "Stuffy Or Starchy" In Any Way, Adults And Kids Alike Will Love It. Very Very Friendly, Professional And Knowledgeable Staff. My Wife And I Were There 3 Hours And To Be Honest Given The Time Could have Spent All Day. BRILLIANT!!

Went today for a backstage tour. Ridiculously cheap (£3), lasted well over an hour, very informative and fun. Do go to a future tour. You won't regret it.

As a family we holiday in Norfolk every spring. We love visiting the Yarmouth Stadium for greyhound racing, and last year had a delicious dinner in the main restaurant watching the dogs. We were booked in for dinner and racing again this year, and had paid a deposit. Sadly due to the coronavirus outbreak the evening had to be cancelled. I wanted to write a review to say how impressed we were that Yarmouth Stadium called us to explain the situation and refund us our money without any prompting. Emma was polite, courteous and very efficient on the phone. We look forward to visiting again next year.
