The Auditorium - Orchestre National de Lyon is the primary performance venue for the Orchestre National de Lyon, one of France’s leading orchestras. Opened in 1975, the auditorium was designed by architect Claude Vasconi and is renowned for its acoustics and modern architectural style. It’s situated within the Hôtel Dieu complex in Lyon's 1st arrondissement. The hall accommodates approximately 1400 spectators and hosts a diverse range of classical music performances, including symphonic concerts, chamber music recitals, and opera productions. Beyond orchestral performances, it also occasionally features performances from artists across other genres who benefit from its exceptional sound quality and prestige. The venue underwent significant renovation work completed in 2023 to further enhance its facilities.
