Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre
A performance at this Art Deco theatre offers a different kind of seaside outing: settle into a show instead of moving between attractions. The programme covers several styles of live entertainment, so choose by the production you want to see. The building’s presence beside the gardens also helps orientate a central walk.
Treat the performance as the fixed appointment. Check running time, age guidance and the last convenient transport home before arranging dinner around it.
