Blackpool Grand Theatre

Stepping inside the Victorian auditorium of Blackpool Grand Theatre, you'll quickly grasp why it's affectionately called ‘the glorious Grand.’ The place is a feast for the eyes with its ornate, gilded plasterwork, a baroque ceiling that seems to whisper stories of the past, and playful cherubs that add a touch of whimsy. The cantilevered balconies are a marvel, offering every seat a perfect view of the stage. And those elegant new seats? They make you feel like you've stepped into a different era, one where going to the theater was the highlight of the week.

Designed by the legendary Frank Matcham, Blackpool Grand Theatre is one of the few remaining gems with such rich architectural character. Imagine a magnificent four-level auditorium boasting 1,100 seats. It's a space that feels grand yet intimate, and it hosts an all-year-round program that celebrates every form of live art you can think of.

As Lancashire's premier touring theatre and arts center, Blackpool Grand Theatre offers an exciting array of shows throughout the year. From gripping dramas that leave you pondering to comedies that have you laughing until your sides hurt, there's something for everyone. The theater is not just about the shows, it's about the entire experience. The atmosphere is electric, the staff is friendly, and you'll find yourself wanting to return before you've even left. Plus, Blackpool itself is a vibrant seaside town with a rich history and plenty to explore, making it a perfect getaway for a mix of culture and fun.
