About Southend on Sea
Originally the south end of the village of Prittlewell, Southend became a seaside resort during the Georgian era. Good rail connections and proximity to London mean that much of the economy has been based on tourism and acting as a dormitory town for city workers ever since.
Southend Pier is the world's longest pleasure pier at 1.34 miles it has suffered fires and ship collisions, most recently in October 2005 but the basic pier structure has been repaired each time. James Brunlees was the designer of the new iron and steel pier which was eventually completed in 1889 and fully opened in 1890 the two main features of the new pier were its Pavilion and electric train services unfortunately there has been significant loss of pier head facilities since the major fire in 1976.
The Kursaal was one of the earliest theme parks, built at the start of the 20th century it closed in the 1970's and much of the land was developed as housing. The Entrance Hall, a listed building, is a bowling alley arcade operated by Megabowl and Casino, an amusement park, formerly known as Peter Pan's Playground straddles the pier entrance. Peter Pan's Playground was eventually renamed Adventure Island and as its size and popularity grew, and has since grown into a large amusement park with over 50 rides. The seafront also houses the "Sea Life Adventure" aquarium owned by the Miller family who also own Adventure Island.
On the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month Southend hosts a Farmers Market. An airshow dubbed "Festival of the Air" takes place each May; starting in 1986 the first show starred a Concorde flypast whilst on a passenger charter flight. The show is one of Europe's largest free airshows and features high speed military jets and sports aerobatic displays which fly over the sea, parallel with the sea front. The RAF Falcons parachute display team and the RAF Red Arrows jet aerobatics team are regular visitors to the show.
Each August Southend Carnival opens along the "Golden Mile" with the lighting of the Southend Illuminations. The Southend on Sea Film Festival is an annual event that began in 2009 and is run by the White Bus who are based at TAP, Old Water Works in Southend. Ray Winstone attended the opening night gala in both 2010 and 2011 and has become the Festival Patron. The films shown are a combination of world cinema, independent cinema, documentaries, children's films, sing a longs, popular classics and British noir. The Festival usually takes place over 5 days in spring at the Palace Theatre, Park Inn Palace Hotel and Southend Central Museum & Planetarium. Fringe events including musical performances take place at a variety of locations in Southend.
There are three theatres in Southend, The Cliffs Pavilion, the New Empire Theatre and The Edwardian Palace Theatre which is a grade II building built in 1912.
