Fantastic entertainment and cultural venue. A strong and varied programme of arts and entertainment with good cafe. Havant museum is also part of the complex. We love the music bites events which have a relaxed social atmosphere.

Visited here unexpectedly, very glad we did. Super staff serving delicious sweets and savouries. The sausage rolls were amazing. Great place to go after a long walk along the billy trail. Would definitely recommend.

This offers a small museum with a good range of local artefacts, a café and it hosts films, plays, concerts and celebrity evening the acts range from new and fresh talent to the older celebrities who are now reduced to doing the local rounds, rather than the West End to earn a crust. The pictures element is hosted on a pull down projector screen which is really too small for the size of the hall, the leg room in the seating is too limited to be comfortable for anything after half an hour and the acoustics are not great. The prices for "local" cinema and shows are, in my view, too expensive. Unless you are local you would not travel here to watch the range of entertainment on offer and the content of the museum would be of little or no interest to you.

I have visited the Spring many times and have never been disappointed.For a huge variety of shows ,comedians ,music and informative talks they have all been excellent.The venue is lovely with a large cafe area surrounded by many items for sale many from local artists -I never seem to come away empty handed ! The atmosphere is welcoming and bright and there are very often post show chats from the performer in the foyer afterwards .If you haven't discovered the Spring check out the future performers and give it a go !

Often pop along here either with children to take part in activities or enjoy theatre. Nice selection of gifts available. Museum very interesting. Cafe serves small selection of food and drinks of good quality. Reasonable costs/prices. Museum is free.

Used to bring my kids here when they were young for years. A really nice modern atmosphere with shows on all the time. Been to a few craft events, they are really well put together and the staff are great at helping. Overall, a good place for a rainy day.

This was our first visit to the local Spring Arts and Heritage Centre (we've lived in area 18 months). Fortunately a neighbour had told us that we had to see "God of Carnage." We were blown away -- it was a hilarious and laugh a minute production in which each of the four actors did a stellar job! As senior citizens, we only paid £7.50 each for this amazing show! We had second row seats! This theatre should really be supported! Besides a great show, the venue itself is very attractive and there's on-site parking. We've spent a lot more for theatre tickets at other venues. The price/performance here is truly remarkable. There's also a cafe and a local art exhibit with some interesting sketches. You won't be disappointed!!!

How much more pleasant is it to see a film here than go to a multiplex? Free parking, free coffee, no adverts, just straight into the film. And best of all, no popcorn munchers. Just like an old-fashioned cinema. I'm never going to a Vue or an Odeon again. There are some good films on, but even better live bands. The venue is small, so it is a very intimate atmosphere. Have seen a number of small folk/acoustic groups here, all have been really good. There's a bar, a display on local marine life and best of all a quite quirky local museum to look around before the show begins. This is my favourite local venue.

We spent about 1 1/2 hrs in the building and found it fascinating particularly the Kenwood story, and the sound and vision display
