Arundel tourist information
Quirky, fun and cosmopolitan, the modern market town of Arundel in West Sussex, is full of history, heritage, contemporary culture and charm.
Many people will know Arundel for two famous landmarks, Arundel Castle and Arundel Cathedral, which dominate its impressive skyline.
But there's so much more to enjoy with a great range of things to do including fishing, boating, wildlife watching, outdoor swimming and walks on the nearby South Downs – the UK’s newest national park.
Shop at independent retailers, antique markets and art galleries and find a host of great places to eat and drink in the town centre or by the River Arun.
Each year Arundel plays host to some of the most popular events in Sussex including Arundel Festival an amazing ten days in August; Arundel Cathedral’s Feast of Corpus Christi - traditionally 60 days after Easter and Arundel by Candlelight in December.
Arundel Museum hosts the Visitor Information Point in a modern building opposite the Castle entrance and next to the main car and coach park, so make sure you call in to find out the town's history, choose from a range of information leaflet, book a guided walk and much more.
There's so much to see and do, you'll need to stay overnight to fit it all in! Take a look at the Accessible Sussex by the Sea page if accessibility information and guidance is required.
