Coronet to remain open until 2018
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 20 September 2016
Have you been enjoying The Coronet’s final year? No, you haven’t. Because what had been billed as The Coronet’s final year has now become The Coronet’s penultimate year. The South London venue has had an extra year added to its lease.
As previously reported, the venue had already managed to negotiate an extra year on its lease, before the space is lost to the redevelopment of Elephant & Castle. The venue has been putting on events in the area since 1879, and will now continue to do so until January 2018.
“We are delighted to announce that we have accepted an offer to extend the future of the Coronet for one more year”, say the venue’s management in a statement. “2016 has been an exciting year for us, featuring many memorable live shows and club nights and showcasing our versatility as a venue. Then just as the team were preparing for the last hurrah, this reprieve has re-ignited the engines”.
“We hope to make 2017 even bigger and better than 2016 and make it a truly fitting farewell to this magnificent building, which is filled to the brim with musical history”, they continue. “We hope that over the next fifteen months we will welcome you to enjoy this iconic venue with us, a stalwart of the South London entertainment scene for nearly 140 years”.
As ever, stay tuned to the Coronet website for details of upcoming events.
