PLANS to tear down and demolish the disused ice rink and swimming pool at Plymouth Pavilions have been given the go-ahead with those Bosses at the Pavilions had asked Plymouth City Council for permission to demolish the redundant parts of the entertainment complex and redevelop the site plans granted earlier this week.
The famous indoor swimming pool, complete with the slide and wave pool, shut in March 2012 and the ice rink on January 1, 2023.
However, there are no plans to close the Pavilions arena and it will continue to stage shows and even operate while the other parts of the building are torn down.
In the plans when they were submitted, Pavilions bosses said removing unwanted areas of the building will allow the Pavilions to focus on the operation and further development of its core music/ events arena business. They added that the demolition would create the opportunity for future development of those parts of the site in line with the council's vision for new homes and businesses within a "regenerated and revitalised area" around Bath Street.
