Moncrieff Entertainment Centre
Highlights
- Experience vibrant performances in the 863-seat theatre, immersing yourself in Bundaberg's rich cultural scene.
- Enjoy indie and art-house films while relaxing in a community-focused venue that celebrates local talent.
- Discover the historical charm of the Moncrieff, a transformed open-air theatre dating back to 1920.
- Savour refreshments at the onsite bar, enhancing your entertainment experience with delicious bites and drinks.
The Moncrieff Entertainment Centre features performing arts, theatre broadcasts and live entertainment, as well as on-demand, indie and art-house films and free community movies.
The Moncrieff Entertainment Centre is named after ‘Our Glad’ Gladys Moncrieff, the world-famous musical star who was born in Bundaberg. Originally the Olympia Airdome, an open-air theatre built in 1920, it was enclosed as the Olympia Theatre in 1955; refurbished as the Crest Theatre in 1973, and reconstructed as the Moncrieff Theatre during 1985 to 1987.
With the update of the venue’s facade in October 2011, it seemed the perfect opportunity to undertake a name change. Moncrieff Entertainment Centre better describes the venue, as all forms of entertainment, including cinema, live theatre, concerts and conferencing are held there.
