The Assembly Hall is the youngest of Worthing’s theatrical venues and was given to the town in 1934 by Alderman Denton, who was Mayor of Worthing four times. He also gave the town Denton Gardens and The Denton Lounge, which adjoins the Pavilion Theatre.
The venue welcomes a host of stars each year. In the past, it has welcomed Motorhead and the Band of HM. Royal Marines, to Jimmy Carr, Eric Clapton, Joan Collins, David Bowie and The Who.
Like the Pavilion Theatre, the carpets can be rolled away to reveal a fine, fully sprung dance floor used in past times for regular afternoon tea dances and Ballroom events.
