The Grand Pavilion was opened in 1932 and is well known for its octagonal dome and striking frontage on the Porthcawl seafront. Originally intended as a Palm Court for hosting tea dances, balls and civic functions, the Pavilion is a multi-functional venue, hosting a wide variety of events throughout the year including live theatre, concerts, ballroom dancing, films screenings, conferences, dances and culminating in the ever-popular Christmas pantomime.
The Grand Pavilion is also a versatile and unique conference venue, hosting many corporate and charity conferences and meetings, and is a popular location for civil wedding ceremonies, receptions and parties. Visitors to the Grand Pavilion’s café bar enjoy panoramic south facing views across the Bristol Channel.
