Brief description

"The Pavilion Gardens is a beautiful historic venue dating back to 1871 which superbly shows off the Victorian splendour of Buxton. Set within 23-acres of magnificent landscaped gardens and play areas the venue provides the perfect setting for fun and relaxing family days out, with great food and drink, shopping and over 100 events and festivals throughout the year.

Launched in September 2012 after a comprehensive refurbishment the facility, which is jointly managed by Buxton Opera House and Pavilion Gardens, offers a prestigious environment to host all types of events. Originally opened as The Entertainment Stage in 1889, and latterly known as the Paxton Suite, the renovations have painstakingly retained many of the early Victorian features complemented by a new contemporary design. The venue is now the home of Buxton Cinema (managed by Buxton Opera House) which showcases the latest film releases throughout the year and has all the cinematic thrills and frills you’d expect from your local cinema.

The main room has 360 seats (comprising of 78 moveable, 140 retractable each with a writing tablet and 142 balcony) and the Studio Theatre has 93 seats (of which 58 are retractable). With large open floor areas, the venue can accommodate a variety of activities and events including lecture style presentations, exhibitions, meetings, conferences, social events, weddings and functions.

There is a fully functional bar with a spacious reception area featuring small sections of ancillary soft seating.

The ingenious design of the Pavilion Arts Centre allows for dual events to take place simultaneously, using both the Studio Theatre and Main Auditorium space. Using this venue means you can access state of the art visual, lighting, sound and communication equipment to support your event."
