St Paul’s Hall

St Paul's Hall is a beautifully converted Georgian church built in 1829 that now provides a venue for a range of concerts by student soloists, ensembles and guest artists in the Music Department's annual Concerts Series. In November each year the Hall also hosts many of the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival events – the Festival’s home is at the University of Huddersfield.

The building, which was renovated into a concert hall in 1980, seats 400 and houses a 3-manual 41-stop tracker-action recital organ (1977), (St Paul's Organ Specification (St_Pauls_Hall.pdf)), two concert grand pianos, and a recording studio, together with outstanding lighting and sound-projection systems.
