The Cirencester Corn Hall has been in constant use since it was first opened in 1862 with Hunt Ball, on January 21, 1863.
Many bands and small orchestras have played at the Corn Hall since then, including the Stax Club events in the late 1960's.
Other events have included tea dances, flower shows and hair dressing competitions.
