About City & Village Tours – Matinee Shows

City & Village Tours has been organising matinee shows for groups for over 15 years, working with WI, U3A, ARA, coach operators, and a wide range of social and community groups.

Our focus has always been on providing enjoyable, well-organised daytime entertainment that groups can look forward to — shows that are relaxed, sociable and great value, in welcoming and accessible venues.

Over the years, our matinee programme has grown to include a wider and more varied range of acts, reflecting the interests of the groups and operators we work with. While the programme has expanded, our aim has remained the same:
to make attending live entertainment easy, enjoyable and memorable for group organisers and their passengers.

Many of the groups and coach operators we work with return year after year, and much of our business has grown through recommendation and word of mouth — something we’re very proud of.

A relaxed, social atmosphere that audiences enjoy sharing

Carefully selected daytime performances

Group-friendly venues with good access
