Octagon Reimagined
Octagon Reimagined will see the largest transformation of the building in the Octagon's 50 year history. After years of planning and preparation construction for the multi-million pound redevelopment is well underway.
The project will transform the building to ensure the theatre is fit for the future by improving accessibility, audience comfort & experience and increasing our capacity to work with young people and the community.
The new theatre will be at the heart of cultural, business, educational and community activity in Bolton and is set to reopen in spring 2020.
