As previously announced on hotpress.com, after being closed for some time for refurbishment the Point Theatre is set to re-open as a 13,000 capacity venue by the end of the year.

The press blurb promises "unrivalled acoustics" and a "unique tiered seating design", along with added benefits for O2 customers, including the chance to buy tickets 48 hours before they go on general release, and fast track entry to the venue.
