Blackpool Shows Great for Theatergoers

Would you like to visit the Blackpool for the festival of lights and while there enjoy other activities? Try out the Blackpool Winter Gardens and be an audience to the variety of Blackpool shows there? For the first timers, it could turn out to be a fun and interesting experience.

The Winger Gardens that is a residence to the Blackpool opera house is divided into various rooms for multipurpose activities. From hosting a variety of functions like concerts and banquets to political conventions, the Empress Ballroom with its vaulted ceilings and crystal chandeliers can serve from 1000 to 3000 guests.

The Empress Ballroom is connected to the Arena which is used for various functions. This room can occupy an additional 600 guests, or for more intimate ambiance like theatrical presentations or medium-sized meetings. Should it be required, a complete blackout can be done.

Blackpool Winter Gardens plays host to a number of conventions, conferences and banquets annually within the Olympia, Renaissance, Baronial and Spanish Halls. Each hall seats a couple hundred people max, and if the event is a large one, thousands of people can fit into a hall if standing room only is required.

With access to the Olympia, the Horseshoe is a spacious exhibition area. In the center of the Horseshoe is the Pavilion Theater. A dedicated theater, seating only as many as 600 people, it provides an intimate venue for viewing Blackpool shows. And is an interesting place to host business meetings, within its ornate elegance.

The Gardens also homes the UK's largest dedicated theater, the Opera House and has a capacity of almost 3000 people including box and balcony seats. The stage has hosted world famous celebrities like Bob Hope, Judy Garland, and Frank Sinatra, and several West End productions played again as Blackpool shows.

Being that the site is in use year round, and the festival of lights is the most popular time for tourists to visit, you can just imagine the wide variety of entertainment choices it's possible to have within even just this one place.
