The old Kinema Ballroom is due to open late November / December 2007 and will play host to larger touring bands with state of the art sound and light systems. The venue is steaped in a history of live music from the 1930s' onwards supporting all types of music from Swing through Rock n Roll, Punk, Rock and all the way to modern day pop and dance music. The new refurbished Ballroom promises to be the home of top touring acts and will promote top names and popular artistes.

The Alhambra was bought in the middle of 2007 will plans to open up in 2008 as a 1,000 plus capacity venue catering for top names and touring artistes.
