The original Kent Theatre opened in 1934 as the Empire Theatre and by the late 50's had become part of the Odeon chain and renamed the Kent  Odeon. Closed in the late 70's the room was transformed into the space you see today. Numerous renovations and additions later, we have The Kent as it stands today. We are home to weddings, dances, live music, birthday parties, kid's events and more. We also host many of the city's cultural groups and celebrations here.
