The 4,000 capacity arena is host to some of the biggest names around, from rock & pop gigs, to comedy, the ballet to children’s shows; when the stars come to town this side of Bristol, the
Pavilions is the must ‘stop off’ for them.

Plymouth Pavilions also boasts the only permanent ice rink in the South West. The Ice Rink is fitted with a state-of-the-art light and
