Pavilion Theatre 100

About our events

On 25 June 2026, the Pavilion Theatre turns one hundred. For a century, this seafront landmark has been a stage for the town's biggest nights and smallest moments - comedians and orchestras, pantomime dames and community groups, first dates and family traditions passed down through generations. To mark the milestone, Worthing Theatres & Museum has planned a year of centenary celebrations, from a birthday weekend on the pier to a glittering Gala Night in December.

Explore the story of the Pavilion, discover what's happening throughout 2026, and find out how you can be part of its next hundred years.
