Haigh Hall and the surrounding woodland park is undergoing an exciting multi-million-pound restoration programme.
This masterplan will transform Haigh Hall into a nationally significant arts, culture and heritage destination providing a world class visitor experience.
Many of the projects are already well underway with exciting milestones on the horizon.
Lovingly described as the ‘Jewel in Wigan’s Crown’, Haigh Hall is close to the hearts of so many residents across Wigan Borough and we share their pride and passion for the site.
With a talented project team behind these wide-reaching plans, we are fully committed to delivering this important project for everyone.
As part of Wigan Council’s commitment to community wealth building and providing social value, the project is providing employment and training opportunities.
Many of these are in partnership with Wigan and Leigh College and the local business network, designed to give back to the local community and voluntary sector.
The Hall
The Hall itself is undergoing a major facelift.
Once complete, the hall will include an art gallery, education area for children, event space for weddings and parties, rooftop terrace, restaurant, bar and much more.
The works to the hall are funded by £20m from Levelling Up Funding and Wigan Council funding of around £21m. You can read more about the funding on our FAQ page.
The hall is expected to open its doors in late 2027.
