The Dacorum Pavilion was a theatre and performance venue in Hemel Hempstead in Hertfordshire.[1] The Pavilion closed in June 2002. The site is occupied by The Forum, which houses council offices and a library.[2]
Acts to have performed at the Pavilion included David Bowie, Electric Light Orchestra, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Genesis, Rod Stewart and the Faces, Status Quo, Joy Division, Speedvark and U2.[1][2] It was designed by the British modernist architect Clifford Culpin.[1]
The cost of constructing the Pavilion was estimated at £341,500 in 1964.[3]
Photographs of the pavilion by Henk Snoek are in the collection of the British Architectural Library.[4]
The local activist group AViD (Arts Venue In Dacorum) are campaigning for the return of an arts venue in Hemel Hempstead.[2]
