Follow us on social media..
We hope you are all ok out there and are powering your way through the current pandemic.
We have had a lot of calls asking when we will be reopening but we really do not know where we are.
One announcement says;
We can re-open.
Then we can’t.
Then it’s;
You can reopen with 100!
Then it’s 200!
Then you can reopen using the 2 mts distance.
Then it’s suddenly announced that they are looking into this.
When we ask, Is there any further funding available?
We are told NO!
Then suddenly on Wednesday night, it is suddenly announced that the Scottish Government are looking into it so who really knows where we are at and when it will be safe and financially viable to do so. We will keep you all posted in the weeks and months to come.
Currently the theatre is ready, willing, and able and a new extremely efficient ventilation system has been installed throughout the auditorium, bars, and toilets, 20 virus killer machines are situated throughout the theatre along with automatic taps in the toilets and a sanitising tunnel (the only one in Scotland) is situated in the foyer as everyone enters.
Toilets, bars, dressing rooms have all been refurbished to a high standard and lots of other areas are now better than they have ever been, so the past year has been used well and we are ready to welcome customers back when the time is right.
Our staff are now off over this holiday weekend and will return on Tuesday, 4th May at 10am.
Forget the election, turn off to politics over the holiday weekend as they will no doubt still be there next week, we hope that everyone has a great holiday weekend and it’s nice to see the city centre busy again and most of all everyone going about their business in a safe and sensible manner.
Well done the pavilion. Let's hope you can open soon... After putting all that hard work in to keep everyone safe.. Missing all my shows ❤️❤️
Sounds as though you have covered all the areas to the full protection as possibly it can be .👏well done for all your hard work and efforts in making the theatre safe for all , so here’s hoping you will be open in the near future , as small steps are better than no steps at all for your staff your public,regulars💚
They are getting into the snooker, just for your own information, shouldn't be too long. Ian
My wife wants to know what a sanitising tunnel is, she has visions of a car wash type facility with everyone being hosed down lol.
Canny wait to be back at the Pavilion 💖💖💖 Hopefully soon 🤞🤞🤞
So they can open pubs with an unlimited number and stadiums at full capacity but theatres and libraries are risky? 🤔
Thanks for the update, maybe we will get to Rally roon the Rangers after all Liz Hodge Karen Hodge Elaine Wallace AIistair Maclntyre NicoIe Tester Charlie Macintyre Deborah Scott James Macduff 💙xx
Hope your open soon👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Good luck when u finally do open. Arts industry has suffered terrible. 👍😀
Totally love the Pavilion, You guys are in my blood ❤️ Hopefully sense will prevail and you open soon ❤️
You have done a lot of work, well done. Hope you can open soon. Sanitising tunnel? Now that's interesting.
They really need to get the entertainment business up and running again 🤷♀️❤️
Well said, hopefully it will be soon 😁
Hopefully won’t be long.
Hopefully it will be opened again soon.
Can’t wait x
Kirsty McCord
Hope to see u all soon booked for September looking forward to this x

Hopefully it won't be long Ian and co.....on a slightly note the guy does the pre show safety announcements,well stocked shop announcement etc I just read that in his voice lol
Hope it opens as looking forward to rally roon the rangers on July
Absolute joke what going on! Yet the snooker can have for the final a max crowd as long as test result given.
I am saddened to hear the news that Prince Philip The Duke of Edinburgh as passed away. He has been a part of the Royal Family for as long as I can remember.
He was an extremely important and supportive part of the UK and Royal Family and a great ambassador for wildlife and conservation.
Rest in Peace Sir and Thank you for your service.

Very sad news R.I.P 💔🌹
Well said. 🤗

So sad x
Today, we decided that as all the flowers were still very fresh, we thought a nice idea would be to take them, along with the other items sent in to the Pavilion to the cemetery in Ayr and place them all at his grave side where they belong.
Again, thank you for sending these in and may Syd rest in peace.
My gran loved Sydney, she passed away the day fore him & layer to rest within an hour of him last Thursday. Maggie will always hold a special place in my heart 💖 Beautiful idea
Beautiful.. Lovely mark of respect.. For those of us that held flowers in to the pavilion Theatre, really nice to see them laid on his resting place.. 😢
Rightly so ,he was such a great performer and truly a nice person ,he will be sorely missed by so many ,many ,people RIP Sydney gone but never forgotten ,you were one of the best 💞🏴🏴

who do i talk too about making movies regarding the second coming me search Stevensunrealtruth.com
Don't even need to listen with a name like that the man clearly has talent 👌👍
Today was a day I never thought that I would see. To see fans lining the streets clapping and Police outriders making the way safe for Sydney’s final journey, this was an honour to be part of.
I would like to thank the family for my invite as I know it must have been a difficult thing to do to have to keep the numbers down.
Rev Neil McNaught kind words were a comfort to us all and Tam Cowan brought memories and laughter that Syd would have enjoyed. Scott’s words were clearly from the heart, remembering days as a youngster right through to still learning from his dad just weeks ago.
My thoughts are with Shirley and the family and I would like to say a big thank you to Danny, Syd’s brother, who sent me a nice card.
Once again Syd, thanks for all the memories over the years, it was a pleasure and honour to have known and work with you.
Rest in peace and a safe journey.
I will never forget you.
Iain Gordon.
Sydney was friend of my late father, George Rex, who was a fellow stage performer, so I knew him for many years before my own trio, The Honeybirds, first worked with him in the Pavilion. Night after night we would have people knocking on our dressing room door desperate to find their hero, to ask for his autograph. Sydney was a true pro and a joy to work with.
RiP Sydney. Thank you for sharing xx
Well done every one involved . My mum and dad loved Sydney and I grew up listening to his albums at family get togethers . Gone to the great stage in the Sky . Shine bright condolences to family and friends .
I remember being a kid with my brother and sister sitting in the back.of.my dads works van( wouldnt happen now lol). I was about 8/9 years old and we were on a country road when syd was on the road behind us still remember waving like crazy at the celebrity in the.posh car and god love him he waved back all the way to we went.onto separate roads. Made 3 young kids day with his kindness. Over 45 yrs ago ❤
What beautiful words and a great send off there was four generations of my family went with me actually sometimes he knew my name because l always went. We all going to miss you . ❤️❤️
A class act till the end God bless him and everyone that stayed bye him offer the year's top class
A one off everyone of a certain age knows Sidney and I've never in over 35 years in music industry heard anyone say a bad word about him as a person.
Great to hear Syd had a good send off but if times were different it woukd have been much greater hope the family can be left to grieve now 💔
RIP- thank you for sharing and thinking of all his loved ones today
Thanks for sharing so sad it couldn't be the funeral he deserved but I'm sure it was a fitting tribute to a great guy. Lovely you got to attend xx

We are all thinking of Sydney today as he is laid to rest.
We thank everyone for the cards, candles, pictures, floral tributes and even the legendary bottles of Bubbles. These were set out around centre stage where Sydney has spent the last 46 years.
To me, he was a Showman, a true performer in every sense but most of all to us all, he was a friend.
Rest in Peace pal and I thank you for all the fond memories and laughs over the years, you will never be forgotten.
“A Legend In Your Time.”
Iain Gordon.
Iain thanking you for this lovely tribute for oor Sydney. He brought happiness to lots of people over the years a true entertainer never to be forgotten. Thank you Iain Gordon x
This makes me very sad. What a lovely tribute. I’m sure there will be a large turnout in Ayr today for the procession but only a fraction of what there would have been had Covid not been around. ❤️
Beautiful tribute and memories of Sydney, my condolences to his family and friends. May he Rest In Peace x

A lovely tribute Mr Gordon. Very sad day for family , friends and fans. I have no doubt that a much more fitting turn out would have made the effort to pay their respects but for Covid restrictions. I’ll do an ‘homage’ at a later date for my friends.

‘Flowergate’
How weird is this? We were walking to the car park at Buchanan Galleries tonight and noticed two bouquets of flowers lying beside a bin, outside Buchanan Street bus station. Scott, my son said, that looks like the two stolen ones; same colour of bows so we went across the road and it was! We have taken these, along with the cards back to the theatre and laid them with the rest. They are still in good condition given they have been out in the cold.
As they say, “The Lord works in mysterious ways.”
What is wrong with people these days ,,, 😡. taking things from a memorial ,, nice of you to take back
That was very kind cus for someone to find the flowers that you and your friend sent to the pavilion and return them back see we do have good people Glasgow well done guys
I cannot thank Ian Gordon enough for finding them, and returning them to the pavilion.
Well done. Some folk are awful, glad you found them
Good for you to return the flowers 🌸 to the pavilion. Who would be so thoughtless in stealing a tribute to a legendary singer.
Maybe the severe windy weather had blown them away previously x
Maybe the person had a conscience after all.
Glad it made them feel guilty
Brilliant news 👏
That's great Ian.
Fantastic xx
👏❤🥰
Well done you took the flowers back xx
❤️
Shaun Mcsorley Marrky Miller-Chan Jeff Miller-Chan
Terrible someone taking them. Glad you got them back Iain. Hope your all well, long time no see. Take care, stay safe x
Person possibly didn’t realise what they were, panicked and dumped them once they did? Either way, glad you got them back.
people who steal from dead people who steal from people who are doing good for people lay flowers for memorial for people like our Sydney DeVine M.B,E Who passed away early hours of Saturday Morning happy the Flowers have turned up peter McMahon
That's brilliant news ian did you get the Scum bag that took them I would send the video evidence to the police as they have ways of zooming in on the person that took them
Don,t understand why they wd lift then just 2 throw them away, so glad they r bak where they belong ❤❤
That was so thoughtful and nice of you x
Well done 👏 😘
👏👏💖
Great news
Well done for taking them back 👏
Some of the lovely memorial flowers and cards we have received for Sydney Devine. A massive thank you to those who have left these at the theatre over the last few days.

Moment 'low-life' thief steals floral tributes to Sydney Devine
www.thescottishsun.co.uk
THIS is the “low-life” thief who nicked floral tributes laid in memory of Sydney Devine – on the day the showbiz legend died. Fans left flowers outside of Glasgow’s Pavilion Theatre after the ...Just saw a post a lady found them discarded not far from Pavilion. She kindly took them back . A really nice thing to do . Well done. Whoever took them in the first place should be ashamed
What is it about some people who think that it’s ok to do this sort of thing? Really!
What's wrong with people !!!
Good photo of you s ydney d r I p
What a great guy
☹️☹️☹️
A bloddy hope the get the scum bag🤬🤬🤬😡😡 I would send the footage to the police as they can zoom in on the face
Bloody scum 😡
KARMA ...
My favourite photo of Sydney, In the pavilion
This is the low life that saw fit to steal memorial flowers laid for Sydney Devine at the stage door.
It is sad when there are people out there that will do this.
I’m sure Sydney would rather see the flowers been put to a decent purpose rather than just lying at a stage door. No idea what that purpose could be. Maybe the bloke that took them ‘needed’ them more than a door.
When they are caught they should be made to listen to steak and kidneys back catalogue 🤣🤣
You got to wonder what goes through some folks minds!! Absolutely despicable stealing flowers laid as a tribute to someone!! So wrong 😢
We have some horrible human beings that walk this earth 😡😡😡🤬
I hope whoever he gave the flowers to recognise him and report him. What a low life!🤬
Give me 5 minutes with him
What in Gods name is wrong with these people? Why, just why would you do that?
Unbelievable
They were found yesterday ( posts on Facebook) confirmed who left them. They were returned by the finder
Some people are just shity little humans 😩
Disgusting ... get it shared everyone and show how much of a grettin this person is 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Hope they have a clearer image from another camera, name and shame
No respect for anything or anyone, not even themselves 😥
Low ljfe
Every time you think you've heard and seen it all .... shameful 😔
What a low life
Low life
Disgusting behaviour
Bring back the death penalty
Lowlife
Absolutely shocking 😡😠
Thats shsmefull
Wouldn't even call this thing a human
We all came in this morning and played footage on the large stage screens of our memories of Sydney. Here is my favourite as he truly was “A Legend in his Time”.
RIP Sydney 💔💔
Legend Sydney will be missed so much bonnie Scotland ❤️❤️❤️
My family loved him ❤️ All of them in heaven now 💔
I loved Sydney singing this. A very fitting tribute to an absolute legend. Rest easy now Sydney 🌹
Instead of leaving flowers in Memoriam why not take the flowers to a sheltered housing complex ,or an elderly neighbour in Sydney's memory.

A Beautiful Tribute. You have done Sydney proud 👏
It would be great if a full show Of Sydney through the years on film could be shown the theatre would be packed every night I think it would be a brilliant night I'd be first to buy a ticket ( Mr Ian Gordon)
Some fans are leaving flowers outside in memory of Sydney Devine, and unfortunately, some of these have been stolen.
If you wish to leave any memorials, we please ask that you do so between 10am and 3pm, Monday to Friday and our staff will take these in and place them on stage, around Sydney’s mic stand.
Thank you for doing this, it is very much appreciated and we will update you with a few pictures over the coming days.
Absolutely f****** disgusting ! RIP SYDNEY A TRUE LEGEND .... well done the pavilion for remembering a true legend
God bless him and great to see the pavilion looking after one of there own pure class
Shocking that people would do this. Probably taking them home for Valentine's Day.😡😡
So disrespectful, how can anyone be so horrible as to steal memorial flowers 😡
Why would people steal flowers etc left as a memorial to someone. It’s beyond belief.😡
Disgusting even if you were not a fan of his music stealing the flowers is despicable
Disgusting that people will stoop so low and steal flowers etc in memory of any deceased person. What a lovely gesture the staff at the Pavilion are doing, well done.
Is there cctv at the pavilion or local area to see who done this
how low will some people stoop 🤬 my Father in Law was a big fan hope there is tiny bubbles in Heaven ❤
How lovely but how awful xxx could create a private group where people could leave their wonderful memories of Sydney xxxx 💔
That is so sad, why would you do that? These flowers are for Sydney & his family at this sad time 💚
Thats just so disrespectful, great idea to bring them indoors 🌷🌷🌷♥️♥️
Hope the people that stole them didn’t give them to there sweethearts for Valentine’s Day?....nae luck!!!
People are becoming more and more disgusting....how vile and disrespectful. Good on you staff of the pavilion for helping fans to leave flowers and give respect for a man who never failed to fill the place. ❤
Disgusting 😡 but think it's a fitting tribute to place them all on the stage where he belonged x🎵🎤🎶
How low can they get dirty wrong yeens honestly get a grip rip Sydney devine he was a good guy xx
We need to have pity on anyone finding themselves doing this sad thing They are being influenced by evil

Low life's. Who in their right mind would steal memorial flowers. Sickos.
Some wee skank would have got flowers for valentines!! 😡 Absolutely outraged!!
That’s awful it’s unbelievable how low people will stoop ☹️ x
This is probably the hardest thing that I have ever had to announce and put on social media, this morning at 3:30am, our friend and star of the Pavilion and Scottish legend Sydney Devine has passed away.
I have worked with Sydney and the band since 1976 and have to say, I have never seen a bad performance, he was the ultimate showman and performer. That is truly hard to find in this business. Syd always took time for everyone, fans, staff and other performers. I just texted him at 8.27am this morning wishing him well and hoped that he had had a better week.
He was one of the Pavilion Family and is a great loss to everyone who followed him over the years. Generations of families have grown up with Sydney, playing his music and passing it down through the generations. Over the years, we have seen parents bringing their kids to see him and in turn, they would bring their kids to the annual “Sydney Devine Weekend”.
Our condolences to Shirley and all the family at this time.
From everyone at the Pavilion, thank you for the memories Sydney. You will never be forgotten, Absolutely Devine! Rest in peace.
Iain Gordon
So sorry to hear about this sad news of Sydney he was such a gentle man we have known him & his family personally for so many years our condolences for his lovely wife Shirley & family our thoughts are with use x x x
RIP Sydney, you were a true gentleman and a legend in your time ❤️ Condolences to Shirley and the family and the extended Pavilion family too. Sydney will always have a special place in our family’s heart ❤️ xx
Brought up with all different types of music in our house but Sydney was always played by our parents who were big fans. So for me it's really sad to learn of his passing due to being brought up with his music. Another ambassador for Scotland away. RIP Sydney Devine.
This is so sad. I seen him at Butlins at Ayr during the October country western weekend and also when he performed in Dunoon. Loved every show. My thoughts are with his family at this sad time.♥️
How sad. He was my mum’s favourite singer. She had all his LPs and we used to sing his songs at our family gatherings. Sincere condolences to Shirley and the family. R.I.P Sydney. x❤️
RIP.Sydney your music will live on and you will be sorely missed x
Elizabeth Stevenson a heartbroken lifetime and eternal fan. Thinking of all the family at this sad time. RIP Sydney xx
RIP Sydney - my memory of him was when I was a child and our dancing displays were at the Pavilion every year "Happy Feet" our show was in the afternoon and Sydney was at night.Saw him once backstage ❤
Would be a great tribute to rename the theatre the Sydney Devine Pavilion
Just read about his illness yesterday in the paper I was hopin6he would come through, such a shame, but a life well lived, RIP Sydney.

Rip Sydney, thank you for all the fabulous shows you having giving each and everyone of us 💕 Sincere condolences to his wife and family xx
A true gentleman and what a show he put on. 100 💯 per cent. I once asked him to visit a wee girl of 6 who was in Seafield Hospital quite ill at the time. She was a great fan of Sydney. After his Show on the Sat he went along to the hospital with a lovely toy Guitar 🎸 and lots of other toys to amuse her. He then took her along the shore in his Mercedes and made a wee girls dream come true. I am sorry to hear this news of Sydney. God bless him and all his family xx. We never missed a show at the Gaiety or Pavilion xx
My fondest memories of Sydney was taking my mum and granny to see him at the Pavilion. They were in their element, I can still visualise their faces of delight. They knew every word to his songs.. Keep singing Sidney RIP lovely man. A true entertainer. 🎸🎶🎼
Aww he’s part of the Glasgow culture your granny loving him and then your aunties him .and always will be a legend. RIP in the big stage in the sky 💙
