Vue Cinemas An 8 screen cinema, showing mainstream movies and located within the Grafton Centre on the East Road side. Look out for 'Cheap Tuesdays' - which you'll need an easy to gain Vue card. Also Orange Wednesdays 2-4-1 are pretty good (text FILM to 241 on your orange phone for buy one get one free tickets!). |

Corn Exchange Could be a place where farmers meet to barter, but it isn't. Instead, is probably one of the largest venues for events such as theatre, comedy, concerts and musicals. |

Cambridge Arts Theatre Refurbished not so many years ago, this venue houses a variety of drama, dance, musical, comedy and pantomime. A coffee shop and restaurant sandwich the building on the ground and 4th floors, respectively. |

Corpus Playroom Tucked away in the side streets of the town centre, this small venue hosts performances during the college term time. |

| SPORTS - More famous for rowing (and that well publicised annual rivalry with Oxford) than anything else. There are, however, a handful of other sports for the intrepid spectator. | ||

Cambridge United F.C. The biggest of the two football clubs in Cambridge. Once flirting with promotion into the new Premiership (many years ago!), Cambridge United has unfortunately fallen from grace and into the conference. |

|
|
Cambridge City F.C. The smaller of the two clubs, formed in 1908, it has prided itself on its amateur status. They currently ply their trade in the Nationwide Southern conference league. |

|
Histon F.C. Located on a suburb of Cambridge, where Histon and Impington seem to have merged. This football club has consistently punched above its weight and gone on a couple of memorable FA cup runs. |
