About The Music Hall The Music Hall is a performing arts center featuring curated entertainment from around the world in two theaters in its downtown Portsmouth, New Hampshire campus—one, a landmark 1878 Victorian theater, the other the intimate Music Hall Loft around the corner, recently named “best performing arts venue” by Yankee Magazine and the recipient of the NH AIA award for design excellence. With acclaimed signature series like Writers on a New England Stage – a partnership between The Music Hall and New Hampshire Public Radio – and the Intimately Yours music series, we bring top authors and artists to both stages. Also, HD broadcasts and extraordinary cinema fill both screens. This dynamic arts center urges patrons to Explore + Learn via master classes, post-film panel discussions, and matinees for children. An anchor cultural organization in this historic working seaport, The Music Hall is one of downtown Portsmouth’s biggest employers and largest contributors to the regional economy: The Music Hall and its patrons contribute $7 million annually to the local economy through show and visitor-related spending. Innovative in its outlook, the organization is community oriented and committed to making the Seacoast flourish. The Music Hall is 501(c)3 nonprofit managed by a professional staff with the assistance of a volunteer board.

Though global in the scope of its artists and programs, The Music Hall operates independently with the support of 3,000 members, 300 business supporters and 58 community partners. Welcoming more than 100,000 patrons (including 20,000 children) each year from the tri-state area and beyond, The Music Hall is the region’s center for the performing arts, literature and education…easy to get to, impossible to forget. “the beating cultural heart of New Hampshire’s seacoast” – Boston Globe HISTORIC THEATER/BOX OFFICE: 28 CHESTNUT STREET (603) 436-2400

CORPORATE PARTNERSHIP “The Music Hall is an important piece of a very cool place we live called Portsmouth. Between the Intimately Yours concerts, Writers on a New England Stage, Hilarity comedy shows, Innovation & Leadership forums, Extraordinary Cinema, or the programs for children like the School Days Series – there is something for everyone at The Music Hall. What makes a city desirable to work and live in is the community. If Portsmouth didn’t have The Music Hall, it would be a very different place.”

— Joe Baroni, The Martingale Wharf/The Rosa Restaurant
