Wyvern Theatre and Swindon Arts Centre scoop top national awards

 

The Wyvern Theatre and Arts Centre are celebrating today having won not one, but two national awards for excellence in a recent awards summit.

 

The event, held in High Wycombe, celebrated theatres from across the country that are managed by HQ Theatres and Hospitality Group - the second largest theatre operator in the UK.

 

The Wyvern Theatre and Arts Centre were recognised for many different aspects including financial achievements, mystery visit scores, health & safety audit scores and public profile through marketing.

 

Venue of the year

 

As well as topping the list of 9 national venues, Swindon’s premiere entertainment provider also took home the award for Best Team, recognising the successful integration of Swindon Arts Centre, which was taken over by the company in April 2014.

 

Derek Aldridge, director of both Swindon venues, said: “I am always proud to lead the teams at Swindon Theatres but never more so than to see them recognised by HQ Theatres in this way. The staff here are extremely dedicated to providing the best experiences to our customers and performers and it was particularly appropriate that their teamwork and co-operation was rewarded”
