Globe Theatre

The Globe Theatre is a cinema and theatre building in Stockton-on-Tees with more than two thousand seats distributed across several levels. The interior still displays the original Art Deco elements that gave the building an elegant look in the 1930s.

The building opened originally as a cinema in 1913 and underwent extensive renovations in the 1920s and 1930s. These upgrades allowed it to show both films and live performances, adapting the space to the needs of the time.

The building is today a popular venue for live music and theatre in the town. Visitors can experience the history of entertainment in Stockton-on-Tees and find themselves in a space that has connected generations of artists and audiences.

The building offers accessible entry with lifts and parking spaces for visitors with mobility needs. Tickets can be purchased online through a digital system, making it simple and quick to plan your visit.

The building remained closed for nearly 50 years before being restored to life through a major renovation project. Its reopening in 2021 with a concert marked the end of a long pause and the beginning of a new chapter in the venue's story.
