Clothworkers Centenary Concert Hall

Address

Step into a world of live music at the University of Leeds. The 250-seat Clothworkers Centenary Concert Hall is the home of the University’s International Concert Series — a vibrant, year-round programme of performances open to all.

From classical recitals and jazz evenings to experimental sounds, lunchtime concerts, and family-friendly events, the hall hosts a rich mix of musical experiences in a beautiful and intimate setting. Many events are free, making it easy to discover something new.

Performances feature internationally acclaimed artists alongside rising talent from the University’s School of Music, offering a platform for creativity, collaboration, and cultural exchange.

Next door, the relaxed Clothworkers Bar provides a more informal space for smaller performances, talks, and social events.

Whether you’re a regular concertgoer or simply curious, join us for unforgettable live music in the heart of Leeds.

Accessibility

• There is step free access to get to the concert hall.
• The front doors have a panel at sitting height to automatically open.
• There are several wooden double doors on the route to the hall which can be difficult to manouevre, staff will be on hand to help, and we will prop doors open where we can safely do so.

• The accessible toilet is on the same level as the concert hall and is located next to the other bathrooms on that level (immediate right of the stairs/lift).
• The bar is at a fixed raised height making viewing bar products difficult for wheelchair users. We will provide a bar menu for your perusal.
