Verizon Hall, the primary performance space within the Kimmel Center, opened in December 2001. It is renowned for its exceptional acoustics, designed by acoustician Russell Johnson. The hall’s design incorporates adjustable elements allowing it to be optimized for various performance types including orchestral concerts, opera, ballet and Broadway shows. With a seating capacity of approximately 2,500, Verizon Hall serves as the home venue for the Philadelphia Orchestra and hosts a diverse array of performances throughout the year. The Kimmel Center itself was conceived as a catalyst for cultural revitalization in Philadelphia’s Avenue of the Arts district.
