Bolton Albert Halls

The Bolton Albert Hall will always have a special place in my heart. I have so many memories from here! Being from Bolton originally, I have seen many shows here and danced in many shows here too!
The cobbled crescent area around the Albert Hall and the large steps at the front, are some of Bolton’s most recognisable features and are still looking lovely to this day.
The theatre itself is lovely and the stage is a standard size (I remember almost falling off it as a dancer once, so it isn’t as big as other stages I’ve performed on :/​)
My most recent visit here was just before Christmas at my annual Pantomime visit with all my friends. Just as much fun now as when I used to see them as a child.
It’s a good theatre — if you get chance to see something here, do!

A decent theatre-​venue for concerts, pantomimes, plays etc. It’s part of the Town Hall building, and thus is located right in the middle of town — which actually has its disadvantages as it’s a bit of a walk from the nearest car park. (That said, there’s a ‘turning-​circle’ just outside the main entrance, so it’s possible to drop someone off if necessary). The venue itself is a typically proud municipal building — impressive architecture, marble floors and columns (I think!), that sort of thing. As such it may not offer the most modern facilities, but it certainly passes muster for what it is. The staff are very friendly, pointing you in the right direction (necessary as it’s quite easy to get lost inside!) and generally being helpful. All in all, a good place to go for a night out.

Superb Venue. Been to the Albert Halls many times and its a superb venue for both music and comedy. Staff are really friendly and helpful.
