It was built to replace the town's Public Hall, intended to be ready for the Preston Guild of 1972, but construction was delayed and it officially opened in 1973. The complex has two performance venues, the Grand Hall which holds 2,034 people and the Charter Theatre which holds 780 people.[1] There is direct pedestrian access, via footbridge, from the adjacent Preston bus station and car park. Artists that have performed at the venue include Morrissey, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, The Jackson 5, Thin Lizzy, Busted and Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel among others.[2] It also hosted the UK Snooker Championship for the years 1977-1997. Until July 2014, it was owned by Preston City Council, who were considering its demolition due to its high running costs.[3] It was then sold to local businessman Simon Rigby, who has promised to spend £1m to renovate the venue.[4][5] References1. ^About Preston Guild Hall, accessed 24 October 2014 {{coord|53.7596|-2.6975|format=dms|type:landmark|display=title}}{{City of Preston buildings}}2. ^Venue has hosted rock royalty Lancashire Evening Post, 10 January, 2013 3. ^[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-20985235 "Preston Guild Hall could be bulldozed"], BBC News, 11 January 2013, accessed 24 October 2014 4. ^[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-28112289 "Preston Guild Hall sold to businessman Simon Rigby"], BBC News, 5 July 2014, accessed 24 October 2014 5. ^"Preston’s Guild Hall saved", Lancashire Evening Post, 2 July 2014, accessed 24 October 2014 5 : Music venues in Lancashire|Snooker venues|Buildings and structures in Preston|Theatres in Lancashire|Wrestling venues |
