The Visitor Centre welcomes over 50,000 visitors and locals through its doors every year and the team is on hand to help you plan the perfect trip!  

The county town has plenty to offer from individual boutiques to historic architecture, modern dining to traditional tea rooms, and unspoilt views to the Blackdown Hills and Quantock Hills (both National Landscapes). Indeed Taunton offers a wide mix of activities, attractions and events and the Visitor Centre team are on hand to help you plan the perfect trip!  

Services offered:
The Taunton Visitor Centre holds information on a wide and varied range of things to do within Taunton and the surrounding areas. 

The Visitor Centre Box Office offers tickets for most local and regional events taking place, including the hugely popular Taunton Flower Show. We are a box office for the Brewhouse Theatre and Tacchi-Morris Arts Centre in Taunton and the Playhouse Theatre in Weston-super-Mare. If you're looking for that special "experience" gift then give the gift of theatre with our Theatre Tokens Gift Cards.

The Travel Centre acts as an agent for Bakers Dolphin, Berrys Coaches, Falcon & Megabus bus services, Holiday Extras and National Express. As well as the booking service we also offer friendly advice for local transport, parking and accommodation to help make your trip stress-free.
