CULTURE

Watford is a town in Hertfordshire, England, lying 20 miles northwest of central London.

The town developed rapidly in the late 19th century when it became a railway junction and built-up area.

A key events venue in Watford is The Colosseum – a 2000-capacity events space which has hosted major international acts such as Olly Murs, Elton John and Cirque du Soleil. Other popular event venues in Watford include Watford Colosseum, Croxley Green Business Park and Leavesden Film Studios.
