Hoxton Hall is a Grade II listed building with a rich history dating back to 1863. Originally built as a Salvation Army hall, it served various community purposes before being restored as an arts venue in the late 20th century. The hall retains many of its original Victorian features including ornate ironwork and a high vaulted ceiling. It is known for its intimate atmosphere and diverse programme encompassing theatre, music, comedy and other performance arts. The space offers both seated and standing areas depending on the event format and has become a notable independent venue within London’s cultural landscape.
