At 1238 seats across three levels, the City Recital Hall Auditorium suits a wide variety of music, talk, film, conference and party events. For smaller events, the stalls can be used in isolation (609 pax seated) and the stalls seating can be removed for parties. The Auditorium also has a recording room with a sightline of the stage for Hirer’s wishing to record the performance. The Auditorium can be used to screen movies, including those accompanied by live music and lighting effects. Auditorium hirers can activate all foyer and bar spaces depending on the function size. The Function Room can be added to the hire for use as a VIP entertainment space, or to extend the Green Room. City Recital Hall was purpose-built in 1999 as the city’s premiere venue for classical sound, both amplified and acoustic. In 2023 an industry-leading d&b audiotechnik XSL Soundscape Audio System was installed, propelling Angel Place into the pop, rock, folk and electronic market and yes, the odd rave…..

The acoustics was wonderful. I took my daughter to hear Mary Beard speak. She was a wonderful historian who spoke with in depth knowledge and a touch of humour. The event itself was very well organised

This is a really great space and quite intimate. We were there for the ABC program ‘The Piano’ and it was ideal for that. I don’t think that there would be any bad seats no matter where you sat. The piano playing and other instruments sounded so clean and clear. Definitely go again for another performance.

Great theatre. Built and fit for purpose with a great location. Great for orchestras with a decent bar and multiple levels for viewing/hearing. Surrounded by great restaurants if you want a nice meal prior or afterwards. Recommend.

Very convenient location so close to Wynyard. There are bars on several levels to buy wines which are poured into 'glasses' which you can take inside the concert hall.

I had no idea the Sydney Recital Hall even existed—until we mistakenly parked at the Opera House for a Sydney Symphony performance and had to make a mad dash uphill to the actual venue! Thankfully, the staff at the Hall were calm, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Even though we arrived late, they guided us on when and how to enter without disrupting the performance. The venue offers drinks, ice cream, and light snacks, which added a nice touch. The seats are a little on the firm side, but the acoustics are excellent and the layout ensures a clear view from almost anywhere in the hall. A beautiful, intimate venue worth discovering—just double-check your tickets first!
