Blackpool Grand Theatre

There are a couple of new ways to explore and experience Blackpool Grand Theatre’s architecture and history.

The venue is referred to as the ‘Hidden Gem of Blackpool’, with its long and lively history and reputation for being designer Frank Matcham’s masterpiece.

On the Grand’s brand new Heritage Tours, visitors will be let in on the secrets and stories of the stunning Victorian theatre, learn about the flamboyant Matcham and explore the warren of staircases and hidden passages that lead to the dressing rooms, hidden quarters and beyond.

The Grand is introducing new Photographic Sessions led by photographer Sean Conboy (photo-genics.com). This unique masterclass will provide enthusiasts with the skills needed to photograph beautiful structures and interiors.
