Lighthouse is a cultural centre located in Poole, Dorset. Opened in 1990, the venue incorporates a theatre, cinema and visual arts gallery within a single building designed by architect Sir Norman Foster. Originally conceived as the Poole Arts Centre, it was rebranded as Lighthouse in 2001. The building’s distinctive architectural features include its prominent tower and use of glass and steel construction. It serves as a key regional arts hub, hosting a diverse programme of performances and exhibitions throughout the year. The concert hall within Lighthouse provides an established venue for orchestral performances due to its acoustic properties and seating capacity.
