This is how multi-million pound transformation of the Octagon Theatre is progressing.

The £10 million Octagon Reimagined project is the first part of the town’s masterplan which aims to transform the building, update backstage facilities and increase accessibility.

The majority of the £10 million has already been secured from Bolton Council and Arts Council England along with trust and foundations, businesses and major donors but there is still an ongoing fundraising campaign.

The Octagon’s box office, café and theatre groups moved to the Market Place Shopping Centre in June and the theatre is set to reopen in early 2020.
