Experience The Hallé live on October 17th
The Hallé, founded in 1848 by Charles Hallé, is a British symphony orchestra renowned for its expansive repertoire encompassing classical standards alongside contemporary works. Historically, the orchestra has championed British composers while maintaining a strong tradition of performing core European orchestral literature. Their performances are characterized by a rich, powerful sound and a commitment to dynamic interpretation.
The concert on October 17th, 2026 will take place at Bridgewater Hall in Manchester. Opened in 1996, Bridgewater Hall was specifically designed as a venue for orchestral music, addressing the city’s previous lack of a dedicated large-scale concert hall. Its acoustics were meticulously planned with input from Russell Johnson, aiming for both clarity and warmth – features frequently praised by performers and audiences alike.
The hall’s design incorporates a vineyard-style seating arrangement, placing the audience closer to the stage and enhancing the sense of intimacy despite its capacity of approximately 2,345 seats. Constructed on the site of the former Central Station, the building also integrates elements of the station’s historical facade into its modern structure. It quickly became a landmark building for Manchester and is now considered one of the United Kingdom's premier concert venues.
