Pavilion Arts Centre presents an eclectic programme, including Coffee concerts, lunchtime jazz sessions, and many other live music, comedy and theatre events. The venue is also home to Buxton Cinema and shows all the latest films, and much-loved classics.Pavilion Arts Centre has long been a cultural centre for Buxton, in Derbyshire. Having originally opened as ‘The Entertainment Stage’ before shortly becoming ‘Paxton Suite’, the venue has provided entertainment to the town since 1889. The building has two creative spaces: The Main Room, which seats 352 people and the Studio Theatre, which seats 93. Pavilion Arts Centre underwent a major renovation in 2010, transforming the historic building into a state-of-the-art theatre space. Alongside the much-needed renovation to seating and staging areas, new technology was added to strengthen the capabilities of the venue. Despite its modern refresh, the building has maintained many of its original features which include the original balcony and art deco stylings of the foyer.
