2 Angel Pl, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia
Auditorium
•City Recital Hall is tucked away in the city laneway of Angel Place Sydney, just steps away from Wynyard and Martin Place, in the heart of the CBD. By day, Angel Place is a favourite amongst business lunch diners and tourists keen to experience the iconic ‘Forgotten Songs’ birdcage installation. At night, Angel Place is closed to traffic, with restaurants extending their trade onto the street, and the party getting started at the nearby Ivy district. In 2024 City Recital Hall underwent a significant refurbishment, with new foyers, bars and amenities throughout, plus new dressing rooms, Green Room and Function Room.
City Recital Hall is best known for its auditorium, acclaimed as having some of the best acoustics in Australia. 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. Since the refurbishment, further spaces have become available to hire, which can be utilised with an auditorium hire or independently. These spaces are versatile, and can be used for cocktail functions, meetings, functions, and VIP entertainment to accompany a live performance.

I came here for an orchestra night. The place is very nice and glamorous. The sound system here is very good, you can feel so relaxed with the music played by the orchestra group. The place is easy to get access to by public transport. Very easy to find with google map. All the staff are friendly and very well-organised.
Amazing Venue for Live Music Went to the City Recital Hall in Sydney to see SAFIA perform and was really impressed. The acoustics were spot on and made the whole show feel extra special. It’s in a great central location too, which made getting there super easy. Would definitely go back for another gig.
A brilliant venue where you get close and personal with the performers and there are no bad seats. Tickets are great value and they have so many great artists putting on shows. I much prefer this to the mega arenas where you're basically watching giant TVs because the performers are so far away.
We attended the performance of Mozart’s Jupiter, and it was excellent. The conductor was impressive—so energetic and engaged—and the orchestra played beautifully.
I had watched the live performance of the ACO here in this beautiful and more intimate concert hall but still feeling spacious enough and fresh. Simple yet elegant. Easy access by public transport, just a short walk from Wynyard station. Enjoy the warm and welcoming atmosphere here!
