About Doncaster

Doncaster is an ambitious and aspirational borough with immense character. There’s so much to shout about – the borough has an international airport, a wildlife park, a racecourse, an abundance of fascinating heritage, wildlife-rich green spaces and a lively leisure, arts and cultural scene. Not only this, Doncaster is also a major travel, logistics and distribution hub in the heart of Britain.

Doncaster’s welcoming towns and villages all have strong identities, history and landmarks. From St George’s Minster to Conisbrough Castle, Doncaster has some of the most recognisable and architecturally impressive buildings around – as well as the picturesque Cusworth Hall and Museum, often described as a jewel in Doncaster’s crown. Doncaster is also home to one of only three Mansion Houses in the country and the world’s oldest classic horse race, the St Leger.

Doncaster Market is one of the finest traditional markets in the UK. It has a number of highlights including the redeveloped Wool Market and Corn Exchange; a fine market hall built in the heart of the market area.

Visitors can discover even more about Doncaster’s history in the brand new state-of-the-art Doncaster Gallery, Library and Museum located in the Civic and Cultural Quarter.

With vibrant communities, businesses, creatives and innovators, Doncaster is a great place with great people, with a proud heritage and a huge ambition as it embarks on the next stage of its transformational journey.
