Help keep the Empire alive for our community.
Blackburn Empire Theatre is an independent, volunteer led charity. Your donation helps us maintain our much loved building, keep ticket prices as low as we can and bring the very best live entertainment to Blackburn.
You will complete your donation on our secure online donation page.
You can also add a donation when you book tickets online, over the phone or at the Box Office.
Why your donation matters
Over the years countless citizens and companies have supported the theatre, from a few pence to thousands of pounds. The result is the magnificent Blackburn Empire you see today.
Today our Board and volunteers are committed to keeping the theatre at the forefront of arts and entertainment in Blackburn. We do not receive regular core funding, so your support is vital.
Your donation helps us to:
- Maintain and improve our theatre building, facilities and equipment.
- Invest in comfort and access for audiences and performers of all ages.
- Support local amateur and community groups on a professional stage.
- Keep prices as low as we can so more people can enjoy live theatre.
If you would like to discuss a regular gift, a gift in memory or leaving a legacy in your Will, please email boxoffice@blackburnempire.com.
