PRINCES Theatre in Clacton has been named a Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Award winner for 2025.
The award means the theatre has retained its title as the town's number one attraction for the 10th year in a row.
The theatre's success is based on "consistently outstanding reviews" from visitors over the past year.
Gary Scott, councillor responsible for arts, culture and heritage at Tendring Council, which runs the theatre, said: "We are truly honoured to receive this recognition for the 10th year running.
"We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our visitors and reviewers for their kind words, and to our incredible team whose dedication behind the scenes helps to keep the onstage magic alive.
"Travellers’ Choice is one of the most respected awards in the travel industry, and we’re delighted to have retained the top spot."
Kristen Dalton, president of Tripadvisor, congratulated the theatre on its recognition.
She said: "Ranking among the top percentage of businesses globally means you’ve made a lasting impression on your visitors—so much so that many took the time to share glowing reviews online.
"We hope this recognition continues to drive success for you in 2025 and beyond."
