If you are not familiar with Cambridge, it’s common for only its world class university coming to mind – its understandable! After all, this is a university city, with its student population and the culture that comes along with it giving Cambridge so much of its local character.

And this city is hugely proud of its culture. We imagine you know enough about this renowned educational establishment to know that it’s not only one of the finest in the country, but internationally as well. So famous and deserved are its accolades, that singing of its we-known praises is simply pointing out the obvious.

With this in mind, Cambridge is so much more than its world-class university. This city is packed full of other attractions and benefits – there’s simply so much more on offer here.

As a city, Cambridge is incredibly creative, with a love of art and culture matched only by few other areas. This is clear through its multiple deep-rooted theatrical venues such as the famed Arts Theatre and the new-found Cambridge Junction. For larger performances, even the Cambridge Corn Exchange opens its doors to theatrical, comedic and musical acts.

Speaking of the latter, Cambridge has quite the musical legacy. The city is probably best known as the home of Pink Floyd, but other acts – including the likes of Muse and Logistics – all have their roots here. It’s also a community with a rich love of history, as encapsulated by the likes of Fitzwilliam Museum and the Museum of Cambridge. And of course, if you prefer your history a little closer to you, the city has plenty of fascinating landmarks for you to explore as well!
