First time to see a band we've been watching for over 20 years. What a lovely place, great wide stage, bar at each end with orderly queues and good selection of drinks. Nice touch having some seating available. Well organised council run event place and will definitely look at gigs in future with plenty of places to stop over.

Morecambe Winter Gardens

Opened in 1897, this magnificent example of Victorian architecture stands proudly on Morecambe seafront. A Grade II* listed building, it has played host to many stars of stage and screen, including Laurence Olivier and has been the setting for both TV dramas and documentaries. The architects were the Manchester firm of Mangnall and Littlewood. Once you enter into the foyer you will see the grand marble staircases which once would have transported the paying customer to the upper level of the dress circle and also allowed them to enter the now long gone ballroom. In their heyday these buildings could have accommodated over 7000 people which included 2000 dancers. The theatre is operated and run by a Charitable Trust and volunteers who's sole aim is to restore the building and make it a usable space for generations to come. Theatre tours are available and can be booked online. Café & Bar.

Wandering around (socially distant) admiring building and all the renovation work that has been undertaken. Fantastic building and cant wait to return next year. Enjoyed a nice cuppa whilst taking it all in. We had hoped to visit earlier in the year but dont live local and our holiday was cancelled due to covid.

This book store is an amazing labyrinth of books and quirky ornaments. We could have spent hours in there, so many genres and interesting nooks and crannies. Good prices too.

Morecambe Heritage

Reviewed By morecambelive

This is a fabulous visual collection of artifacts - authentic original items and props used in films. It is good to see - for a better understanding of what it was like to be in the wars. there is a dressing up area for children to try on and feel the weight/ texture of the clothes they had to wear! Cabinets filled with items from the 1st world war - collected from the fields of France. The owner of the memorabilia has collected it over 30 years and it is the first year it has been on display to the public. Well worth a visit!!

Located in the old railway station this is a great TIC. Obviously a TIC but also a good gift shop and booking office for local events. Prior to Corona virus, in the same building is The Platform that usually has a varied programme of music. Mainly tribute but at the top end of quality. The TIC also serves as the ticket office, not lust for The Platform but also the theatres and attractions in Lancaster. With the 100 bus service every 15 minutes into Lancaster
