The Guildhall is managed by King's Lynn and West Norfolk Borough Council. The Arts Centre is now being run as a hire venue, supporting a year round programme of theatre, dance, music, lectures and film. Individuals or groups wishing to hire the venue can contact the Corn Exchange Manager on 01553 765565.
If you want to look around the Guildhall, there are volunteers who offer a guided tour if you ring the number provided, but this cannot always be guaranteed. We apologise for any inconvenience caused while the future of the site is under consideration by the leaseholder.
Most of our places run the Gift Aid on Entry scheme at their admission points. Under this scheme, if you're not a member you have the choice of two entry tickets:
If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you the Gift Aid Admission prices. But it's entirely up to you which ticket you choose. If you want the Standard Admission instead, just let us know when you come to pay.
Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid* — an extra 25 per cent — potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below: Payment of the additional percentage donation is entirely voluntary, so if you prefer to pay the standard admission please advise our reception staff at the till point.
| Gift Aid | Standard | |
|---|---|---|
| Amount paid by visitor | £11.00 | £10.00 |
| Tax refund from Government* | £2.75 | £0.00 |
| Total received by the National Trust | £13.75 | £10.00 |
*Gift Aid donations must be supported by a valid Gift Aid declaration and a Gift Aid declaration can only cover donations made by an individual for him/herself or for him/herself and members of his/her family.
King's Lynn Arts Centre Trust is now closed, sorry for any inconvenience caused. Please see the Overview for how to gain access to the Guildhall. The independently-run catering venues on site (Crofters Tea Room and Riverside Restaurant) are still operating as normal.
