PROMOTER INFORMATION
The Stoller Hall is a purpose-built 482 seat concert hall with state-of-the-art acoustics and facilities. Designed by Stephenson STUDIO with specialist acoustic consultants Arup, the RIBA award-winning Stoller Hall is one of the world’s finest examples of modern concert auditorium design. Situated directly opposite Manchester Victoria station, The Stoller Hall is
perfectly located for local, regional and national access. Visitors enter via the stunning Oglesby Atrium which also serves the Carole Nash Hall, our smaller 100 seat sister venue. The Stoller Hall is the ideal place for recitals, chamber concerts, jazz, folk, pop and spoken word events as well as recordings and conferences.
