Backstage Tour of The Forum

Guided Backstage Tour of The Forum

The building that houses The Forum is celebrating 90 years as a community landmark! Originally built as a super cinema in 1934, the walls of this stunning venue are imbued with history. Serving through the years as a cinema, dance studio, bingo hall, church, arts venue, and occasional film location, the building has always been a place for the citizens of Bath to gather. So it’s about time we open the doors to you!  

Join us for our 90th Birthday Party and Open Day on Saturday May 18th to take a closer look at our stunning Art Deco Architecture, learn about the history of the building that survived WWII bombing, and get an exclusive look around the usually off-limits areas like greenrooms and backstage areas where we’ve hosted stars like Mary Berry, Norah Jones, James Blunt, Gabrielle, and Graham Norton.
