Music Time

Glen Pavillion

Built 1934, art deco in style, a building that now hosts weddings, conferences, comicons, concerts and boxing fixtures. There’s a debate asking if it was built solely by John Fraser (local architect also designed The Alhambra Theatre) or with assistance from F A MacDonald & Partners.

Whoever is responsible it has seen a lot of events and guests including Dalai Lama and Queen Elizabeth.

It can be hired for weddings, conferences and other events. Have you wandered through the park in the dark to attend an event? 

Local legends Big Country and The Skids play here regularly. If you enjoy Big Country, we have found a video from Rocksteady TV show of 1990 showing them in concert in this building.
