You can relax in our DanceEats Café, wander along the waterfront, or head to one of the local parks. So why not make your visit to the DanceHouse part of your day out in Ipswich?
HOW TO GET HERE
As part of our commitment to Environmental Responsibility, we encourage you to use public transport or car share with your group when you visit the DanceHouse.
