THE team behind Bradford Live has released a picture of the venue's auditorium.

The image was posted on social media today with the caption: "A first glimpse of the auditorium!"

Earlier this month, a Bradford Council spokesperson said: "Completion of the main building work on this fabulous venue is in the final stages. 

"Once finalised, preparations can be made for fit-out of the venue. 

"Alongside this, the legal processes relating to handover to the NEC Group will be progressed."

The Birmingham-based NEC Group has not publicly commented on its involvement with Bradford Live for several months.

In December last year, the NEC Group said Bradford Live's launch season would "commence in autumn 2024".

No shows or events are currently listed under the 'what's on' section of the Bradford Live website - as questions continue to be asked by many.
