A future for the Floral Pavilion

Neptune Developments have submitted a new planning application which could safeguard the future of the threatened Floral Pavillion in New Brighton. Following the disappointing decision to refuse planning permission for the £73 million scheme to regenerate New Brighton, Neptune have now propose to split the work into phases. The new application for the £17 million first phase of works includes vital work to upgrade and update the renowned Floral Pavillion Theatre with new conference facilities. It will become a “new” theatre with new facades, roof, dressing and rehearsal facilities, auditorium and stage, foyer and bar area, and a major new performance and exhibition space. The Town Square will create a new public space for the people of New Brighton and visitors alike to enjoy. The 6,300 square foot of leisure space is aimed at independent restaurateurs with 43 apartments above.
