Middleton Hall
A world-class cultural venue
Following a £9.5 million investment, Middleton Hall has been transformed into a world-class cultural venue with some of the finest facilities around.
The centrepiece is a spectacular 406-seater auditorium that can be adapted to host theatre productions, conferences and surround-sound cinema screenings. It is accompanied by the contemporary Arts Café and Bar.
With industry-standard recording studios and a cutting-edge TV filming and editing suite, the hall also offers some of the finest music facilities available. The music studios and recording equipment rival the best commercial studios and includes a huge 48-channel mixing desk and one of the finest ambisonic studios in the country, which allows listeners to experience 3D sound.
The University was a principal partner of Hull UK City of Culture 2017 and played an active role in producing and hosting some of the year’s most spectacular cultural events – many of them held at Middleton Hall.
The hall is available for hire throughout the year, although some restrictions apply for daytime events during the teaching period.
