Are you a business looking to raise your profile in the local community? Do you want to make a difference and support the arts?
If so, we would like to hear from you!
Who we are
Since it opened in 2007, Ropetackle has established itself as one of the most vibrant and distinctive arts venues in the region, combining its programme of top-level arts and entertainment with a rich and diverse mix of community activities.
From jazz festivals to comedy cabarets, classical music to rock, spoken word to film, Ropetackle has something to suit all tastes and has built up a tremendous reputation.
Attracting audiences of around 40,000 per year, Ropetackle plays a unique and established role at the heart of the community, as well as being a hugely valued contributor to the local economy and an important amenity asset. Its range of rooms, well-stocked bars and on-site cafe and catering also make it a great place to hold business meetings, seminars and conferences.

“We wanted to give something back to the local community who support us as a business and as a ‘home’. Ropetackle gives great joy to the community and the fact that the place operates almost entirely by virtue of volunteers who work so hard, made it the perfect choice for us as a ‘community partner’. Becoming a sponsor of Ropetackle has had a remarkable effect on our business both in terms of brand awareness, new business opportunities, and our reputation for being actively engaged in the local community.”
Keith Relf, Managing Director, Pembroke Financial Services
