Things to see and do
The Rowena Cade exhibition tells the story of the woman who created this iconic theatre.
The theatre includes a sub-tropical garden full of exotic species rarely found outdoors in mainland Britain. We're proud to be a member of the Great Gardens of Cornwall.
Rowena Cade's gardener and helper (played by an actor) tells the story of how they built the Minack. Meet Billy Rawlings is available on selected days only. See calendar.
Our small group guided tours give a deeper insight into either the theatre history or our garden. Tour dates and places limited. Find out what tours are available.
Access our online audio tour on your phone to tour the theatre at your own pace.
Our activity leaflet is a perfect introduction to the Minack for children. Pick one up at the theatre entrance.
We offer a range of activities for children and adults. Many of these take place at weekends, including our popular Play in a Day workshops. Book a guided tour to explore the theatre in a different way.
