Barrfields Pavilion was officially opened on 11 April 1930, as a variety theatre for the small town of Largs, Ayrshire. Originally seating 1003, it was home to the lavish Barrfields Summer Season Revues. Many international Scottish entertainers and actors have played the theatre over the years including Rikki Fulton, Jack Milroy, Jimmy Logan, Stanley Baxter, The Krankies, Ronnie Corbett, Johnny Beattie, Billy Connolly and from south of the border, Frankie Vaughan and Pat Kirkwood. For the past 75 years, it has been home to local companies Largs Amateur Operatic Society and Largs Players, who present pantomimimes, musicals, operettas, variety and plays in the theatre throughout the year.
