Weymouth Pavilion

The Weymouth Pavilion is a theatre building located at the end of the Esplanade in Weymouth, directly adjacent to the beach. It provides performance spaces designed to host a wide range of entertainment events and shows throughout the year.

The building opened in 1960 and quickly became a major entertainment venue for the Dorset coastal region. Since its establishment, it has operated continuously as an important cultural destination for the community.

The venue hosts regular performances from both local and touring artists, featuring concerts, comedy shows, and theatrical productions. Visitors experience a diverse mix of popular entertainment and live performance art here.

The venue sits directly on the seafront promenade and is easily accessible from the town center, with ample parking available nearby. Visitors should check what events are scheduled and book tickets in advance for the best availability.

The venue welcomes dogs at performances, making it an unusually pet-friendly cultural space in the English entertainment landscape. This policy allows many visitors to enjoy cultural events without having to leave their pets at home.
