Regardless of your tastes and interests, we are confident we always have something for everyone. We exist purely to expose the maximum possible audience to arts and culture and to put Wigan and it’s people on the cultural map as both a destination and a hotbed of talent. Take a look what's on and plan your next visit. The Old Courts is YOUR arts centre. All revenue from ticket sales, drinks and refreshments purchased, venue hires, and kind donations from supporters are invested into making great events and creating opportunities for people to be part of a cultural revolution. We embrace the constant, thriving cultural scenes we all see when we visit towns and cities around the UK and The Old Courts believe that this buzz and positivity is happening here in Wigan with you on board. Cutting edge Art isn’t a thing of privilege reserved for the chosen few, we all have a right to express ourselves and The Old Courts firmly believe that anything is possible with the right ideas.
