VISITORS to Bournemouth Pavilion will be able to take a look behind the scenes next month as part of Dorset Architectural Heritage Week.
Guests are invited to take a look around the historic ballroom and theatre in a guided tour around the Grade II listed venue.
Organisers will be teaching about the 95-year-old theatre, ballroom and stage while showcasing the original stage equipment from the 1930s.
Tours will offer greater insight into the venue’s architecture and history, creating an opportunity for more visitors to learn more about its vital role and contribution within the BCP region.
They will take place on Friday, September 6 and Saturday, September 7. Places are limited and bookings can be made at ticketsource.co.uk/dahw2024.
Steve Turner, director of venues, said: “Over the years, the stage and ballroom have welcomed some amazing talent.
“These spaces are a cornerstone of Bournemouth’s cultural offering supported by a host of regular patrons, groups, promoters, and visitors.
“We are delighted to work with Dorset Architectural Heritage Week again this year to show what goes on at Bournemouth Pavilion behind the scenes and inform visitors of its importance to the region and why it is such a culturally important landmark.”
