Leeds Town Hall places us at the heart of the city within one of West Yorkshire's most significant historic civic buildings. Designed by architect Cuthbert Brodrick and opened by Queen Victoria in 1858, our Grade I listed building was created as an imposing civic centre and has since become an important destination for concerts, cultural programmes, conferences and special events. Our principal event space, Victoria Hall, provides a spectacular setting dominated by the Town Hall's historic organ. The auditorium can accommodate approximately 1,200 guests in a theatre-style arrangement and up to around 1,300 for receptions, giving us one of Leeds' largest heritage event spaces. We also have smaller rooms suitable for meetings, conferences, workshops, receptions and private functions. Our programme has included major musical performances, concerts, comedy, film screenings, festivals, conferences and civic occasions. Leeds Town Hall has also played an important role in the Leeds International Concert Season, Leeds International Film Festival and Leeds International Piano Competition. We offer something considerably different from a conventional conference or hotel venue. Our grand Victorian architecture, impressive auditorium and central Leeds location create an atmosphere particularly suited to events where heritage, scale and presentation matter. Whether you are organising a major concert, conference, reception, cultural programme or civic occasion, Leeds Town Hall provides a memorable setting within one of the city's most recognisable landmarks.
Victoria Hall is the principal event and performance space within Leeds Town Hall. The grand Victorian auditorium features elaborate decorative interiors and the Town Hall's historic organ. Its substantial scale makes it suitable for concerts, conferences, large presentations, gala events, receptions, cultural festivals and major public performances. It remains the venue's flagship event space.
The Albert Room is a substantial secondary event space within the Town Hall. It is suitable for conferences, meetings, receptions, presentations and private functions requiring considerably less space than Victoria Hall. Historical descriptions identify the room as one of the Town Hall's important function spaces, making it suitable for both business and ceremonial use.
The Sullivan Room provides a medium-sized setting for meetings, presentations, training, conferences and smaller receptions. Its capacity makes it particularly useful as an independent event room or as a supporting space for a larger Town Hall event. Published venue data records capacity for theatre, classroom, boardroom and reception configurations.
The Elgar Room is one of the smaller meeting spaces within Leeds Town Hall. Its compact scale makes it appropriate for private meetings, interviews, workshops, small training sessions and breakout activity. Published specifications give it a maximum capacity of approximately 25, with boardroom and classroom configurations accommodating smaller groups.
The Walton Room is another compact meeting facility within the Town Hall. It provides a private environment for smaller meetings, workshops, training and breakout sessions. Its published specifications indicate capacity of around 25, with smaller boardroom and classroom configurations. It should therefore be treated as a separate small meeting room rather than combined with the Elgar Room.
The Grimshaw Room is one of the Town Hall's smaller event and meeting spaces. It is suited to meetings, workshops, training, breakout sessions and small receptions. Published configuration data indicates capacity of approximately 60 for reception use, with smaller numbers available for classroom, boardroom and U-shaped arrangements.
The Kramer Room is a smaller flexible meeting and event room comparable in scale with the Grimshaw Room. It can support meetings, training, workshops, presentations and breakout activity. Published venue specifications give it a maximum reception capacity of approximately 60, with smaller capacities for classroom, boardroom and U-shaped arrangements.
The Spark Room is a compact meeting and event space intended for smaller groups. Its published capacity is approximately 30 people for reception use, with lower capacities for classroom, boardroom and U-shaped arrangements. It is best suited to meetings, interviews, training sessions, workshops and breakout activities rather than large events.
The Cohen Room is an intimate meeting space designed primarily for corporate board meetings, private interviews, and presentation sessions. It accommodates 30 to 40 delegates in a traditional boardroom or theater-style layout. Like other minor suites, it is heavily used as a dedicated breakout room for larger conferences happening concurrently in Victoria Hall.
The Reed Room is the smallest of these three corporate spaces, providing an ultra-private environment for focused professional work. It comfortably hosts 16 to 24 guests in a seated configuration. This room is an ideal choice for private arbitration, small executive committees, or serving as a production green room for performers headlining the main stage.
The Corson Room is a historic civic space named in honor of George Corson, the prominent Victorian architect who designed the adjacent Leeds Municipal Buildings (now the Leeds Central Library) and completed Cuthbert Brodrick's original landscaping visions for the Town Hall steps. This room is primarily utilized for small council working groups, administrative panels, and localized corporate workshops.
