Huge congratulations to our team at The Terrace Bistro at Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre!

The venue has been recognised with a Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Award 2026, placing The Terrace Bistro among the top 10% of restaurants worldwide based on customer reviews and ratings 🥳🎉

The award follows another successful summer season for The Terrace Bistro and South Terrace, which welcomed tens of thousands of visitors throughout the warmer months. It's a fantastic reflection of our team's hard work, passion, and commitment to delivering great experiences for every customer 👏

The Terrace Bistro does more than serve great food and drink!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who came along to our Open House Festival at Fairfield Halls last Saturday 💙🎉

Our fantastic team worked non-stop to deliver a fantastic programme of events, including venue tours, technical workshops, and even a drama class.

It was also fantastic to host concerts from resident orchestra, London Mozart Players, plus a theatrical exhibition from Talawa Presents for its 40th anniversary 🎭🎵

We loved sharing Fairfield Halls' fascinating history with visitors, showcasing how the venue continues to play a central role in Croydon's year-round cultural events programme.

Football has the power to bring people together, but few stories demonstrate that more powerfully than this ⚽🧡

As part of Organ Donation Week, ITV News Meridian visited BH Live Active, Littledown to hear the remarkable story of walking football teammates John and Paul.

Following the sudden loss of his son, James, Paul and his wife made the selfless decision to donate his organs. One of James’s kidneys was donated to John, Paul’s lifelong friend, who was experiencing kidney failure.

Thanks to that life-changing gift, John made a full recovery and continues to take part in weekly walking football sessions at Littledown. In total, James’s organ donations went on to help 14 people across the UK, transforming and saving lives.

The story reflects the positive impact sport and community activities can have in bringing people together, supporting wellbeing, and creating lasting connections.

Last month, Littledown also hosted a walking football charity match in support of Kidney Care UK, raising more than £3,000 to help support people affected by kidney disease.

You can catch the full story now on ITVX (Tuesday 22 September, 6pm) 🧡

One Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre visitor's lifelong love of theatre is helping preserve the venue's history for future generations 💙

Nigel, from Weymouth, has generously donated an incredible collection of around 1,000 theatre programmes to Bournemouth Pavilion's archive, spanning every decade since the 1960s.

For more than 60 years, Nigel carefully kept programmes from the shows he attended, creating a unique snapshot of the venue's rich entertainment history. Now, his collection will become part of the Pavilion's archive, helping future generations discover and celebrate the theatre's past ✨

As Bournemouth Pavilion looks ahead to its centenary in 2029, we're asking our community to help us tell the full story of this much-loved venue.

📣 Do you have old programmes, photographs, tickets, posters, or other memorabilia tucked away at home? If so, we'd love to hear from you!

Get in touch with our archive team at [email protected] and help us preserve a piece of Bournemouth Pavilion's history.
