Swindon Arts Centre
Located in Old Town, Swindon Arts Centre is an intimate venue ideal for music, small-scale drama and comedy.
It has:
- A 212-seater theatre
- The Gallery Bar (used as a cafe during the day, and for visual arts exhibitions)
- A studio
- A meeting room
Free theatre tickets
The Arts Centre has been chosen to be part of the pilot scheme to give away 618,000 free theatre tickets to young adults – 26 and under – during the next two years. This scheme fits in with the Council’s National Indicator to increase engagement in the arts. This plan gives us the unique opportunity to enhance the lives, broaden horizons and encourage ever-greater numbers of young people to develop a theatre habit for life.
Friends
There is a Friends of Swindon Arts Centre (FoSAC) organisation.
