Eastbourne Bandstand, Grade II listed bandstand in Eastbourne, England
Eastbourne Bandstand is a seaside concert pavilion featuring a semi-circular design with a striking blue domed roof and cream-colored decorative tiles. The structure has seating arranged across middle and upper galleries that overlook the performance space below.
The pavilion was built in 1935 and opened with a formal dedication ceremony that marked the beginning of its role as an entertainment venue. Its construction was part of wider coastal development efforts during that era.
The venue draws visitors seeking military band concerts and traditional performances that remain central to the town's leisure life. Its distinctive blue dome makes it a recognizable landmark along the seafront where the community gathers for live entertainment.
The venue offers seating with views toward the sea and operates regular performances during the warmer months. It is easy to reach, located right on the promenade, with good sightlines to the stage from nearly all seats.
A commemorative tablet honors a musician who performed aboard a famous ocean liner during the early 1900s. This quiet tribute connects the venue to a story that extends far beyond the coastline.
