Bournemouth Winter Gardens (original) (raw)

Bournemouth Winter Gardens was a theatre located in Bournemouth, England. It was first constructed in 1875 as an exhibition centre, but reopened in 1893 as a popular classical music venue. It was demolished and replaced just prior to World War II and became a popular rock music venue in the 1960s. The Gardens has been closed since 2002 and the site is currently awaiting redevelopment.
