Proposed design
Major progress is now being made to provide North Lincolnshire with a brand new, landmark, £14.4-million entertainment venue.
The latest plans for the former Baths Hall site on Doncaster Road, Scunthorpe, have now been released. You can view the designs and the plans below.
The Baths Hall will provide a modern, multi-use venue, capable of hosting live performances and events, top class entertainment, conferencing and wider community use for up to 2,000 people.
It will include:
- An auditorium/multi use area at ground floor level with flexible partitioning, with a capacity of 1,200 seated and 2,000 standing
- Additional balcony seating
- Conference and break-out facilities
- Café
- Bar.
The council will make a formal decision about which contractor has been chosen to build the new Baths Hall in March 2010.
The Baths Hall, also looks set to be managed by a nationally renowned entertainment operator.
The council has received initial proposals from three potential operators, all of which are national organisations, and in one case international. The proposals outline each operators plan on how it would manage the venue. The three operators are:
- Sheffield International Venues Ltd (SIV)
- SMG Europe Holdings Ltd (SMG)
- HQ Theatres Ltd.
The design of the building is a landmark design that has been led by the council's own architects.
Work will start on site around April 2010 and will be completed by around July 2011.
