A space for everyone.

We work with local talent and leading artists from across the UK to tell fresh and exciting stories all year round. Newly refurbished in 2019, the Hat Factory Arts Centre is back and presenting its most exciting programme yet, full to the brim with live music, contemporary dance, theatre, film, workshops and more! 

Inspiring creative workspaces. Breathing new life into a collection of restored hat factories, in the heart of Luton’s cultural quarter.

Inspired by Luton’s history of hat making and manufacturing, this magnificent cluster of regenerated factories are here to bring creative people and businesses together, so they can grow and thrive!

Ranging from flexible and affordable, to expansive and spectacular, our spaces include the Hat Factory Arts Centre, Hat Works, Hat House and Hat Studios.
