The Spa, Scarborough, Music and entertainment venue in South Bay, England.
The building combines Victorian architecture with modern facilities, featuring the Grand Hall that accommodates 1500 guests and overlooks the North Sea coastline.
Thomasin Farrer discovered natural spring waters beneath the cliff in the 17th century, leading to the construction of the first Spaw House in early 1700s.
The Grand Hall hosts regular performances by the Scarborough Spa Orchestra and serves as the main venue for the annual Scarborough Jazz Festival.
The complex includes multiple spaces for events, such as the 557-seat Victorian Theatre, the Ocean Room for dances, and various conference facilities.
England's first cliff tram, constructed in 1875 to transport visitors to the Spa complex, continues to operate in its original location.
