King's Hall Ilkley
Brian Bilston & Henry Normal
Brian Bilston & Henry Normal - Poetry to be enjoyed not endured.
Cllr. T J Jackson laid the foundation stone in 1906 and he opened, what was then the Town Hall on 27 April 1908. On 6 May 1908 the Council had their first meeting and continued to meet there until 1974.
The Winter Garden was opened on 22 June 1914 by Cllr Joseph Dinsdale. With its glass canopy, lantern roof, balcony and sprung wooden floor, the Winter Garden was a popular place for concerts, meetings, and dances. Today it’s the perfect setting for weddings and other celebrations.
On 10 June 2004 Yorkshire’s own Alan Titchmarsh unveiled the Ilkley Town Hall blue plaque.
In 2022 King’s Hall and Winter Garden hosted the first Ilkley Pride. The event was incredibly well received, with over 1000 people attending and celebrating at the venue.
