Sources of pride for the Trust are the popular Norwich Science Festival and Norfolk Heritage Open Days - the biggest event of its kind outside London - and the many other events that help rebuild economic activity and community life. The iconic Atrium, Gallery and Auditorium host this range of lively and exciting events, bringing together the community with culture and vibrancy as well as offering tenancy to multiple retail/hospitality outlets.
