Bridgwater Town Hall theatre is all set up ready for this year’s Carnival Concerts which commence today (30 September 2024).
Bridgwater Town Council has had a busy summer upgrading their facilities, thanks to the funding from the Bridgwater Town Deal. Following the recent upgrades to the balcony seating, new tiered rostra and seating for the stalls have been installed this week, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for all attendees.
In addition to the seating upgrades, extensive works have been undertaken over the past few months to remodel and refurbish the dressing rooms. These improvements are now complete and ready for use by the various performers and carnival clubs participating in the concerts.
Councillor Tim Mander, Chair of the Amenities Committee said,
“We are thrilled to unveil the newly upgraded facilities at Bridgwater Town Hall. These improvements not only enhance the experience for our audiences but also provide a better environment for our performers.”
“The support from the Bridgwater Town Deal has been instrumental in making these upgrades possible. We are committed to providing top-notch facilities for our community and visitors.”
“We look forward to welcoming everyone to this year’s Carnival Concerts and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of our town.”
The chairs that were previously used in the theatre are now available free of charge for local community centres, community halls or community groups to make use of.
This unique opportunity allows local organisations to acquire a piece of the theatre’s rich history while enhancing their own facilities.
These chairs have witnessed countless performances and events, and now they can continue to serve the community in new settings.
If your community centre, hall, or group is interested in acquiring some of these chairs you should contact Bridgwater Town Council before 11 October 2024 either by e-mailing [email protected] or calling 01278 427692.
Don’t miss this opportunity to bring a piece of the Town Hall Theatre’s legacy to your community!
