Exciting plans have been revealed to bring a vibrant new cultural venue to Blyth town centre by the end of next year.
Northumberland County Council has given the green light to the Culture Hub and Market Place project as part of the Energising Blyth plans which are set to revitalise the coastal town. Funded by the Council and the Government’s Future High Street Fund, Jam Jar Cinema - best known to residents of Whitley Bay - will be the main operator of the new flagship building.
The new venue will house a three-screen cinema, creative and developmental play offer, café, and spaces for a range of events including live music, comedy, drama, dance and celebrations. The Market Place will also be significantly improved around the new venue, adding more green space to enhance the site's biodiversity.
