Benaroya Hall Spring/Summer Brochure by Seattle Symphony

SPRING/SUMMER

WELCOME TO BENAROYA HALL BENAROYA HALL opened in 1998 and is Seattle’s most visited performing arts venue.* Known for its world-renowned acoustics, unique architecture and beautiful art, Benaroya Hall is not only the home of the SEATTLE SYMPHONY — it is host to hundreds of public and private events every year, including concerts, lectures, graduation ceremonies, business meetings and receptions of all kinds.

Whether you’re attending a sold-out concert in the S. Mark Taper Foundation Auditorium, an intimate performance in the Illsley Ball Nordstrom Recital Hall, a banquet in the Samuel & Althea Stroum Grand Lobby, a reception in the Norcliffe Founders Room or experiencing music through state-of-the art technology found in the new, immersive event space Octave 9: Raisbeck Music Center, Benaroya Hall has something for everyone.

Now in our 2019–2020 season, BENAROYA HALL is proud to offer the deep variety of artistic and educational programming you see in this brochure, from one-night-only lectures to week-long music celebrations, and everything in between.

We hope to see you soon! *Downtown Seattle Association’s State of Downtown Economic Profile Front Cover Photo: Alex Studio
