Barnsley is a thriving borough with a proud tradition of coal and glass. We're famous for our award-winning markets and outstanding museums and galleries. Our town centre is packed full of independent shops and high street stores. With a mix of cafes, theatres and museums, there's lots of offer when it comes to leisure and culture. On the outskirts of the town and its villages, you'll also find hamlets and farm shops stocked with local produce.

Bordering on the Peak District National Park, Barnsley has beautiful outdoor spaces, popular attractions to visit and hidden gems. Take a look at the Visit Barnsley website to discover places to go and things to do across the borough.
