CBSO Centre, Music rehearsal center in Birmingham, United Kingdom
The CBSO Centre is a music facility in Birmingham that functions as both a rehearsal venue and performance space. It contains a hall seating around 310 people with professional acoustics, along with multiple specialized rehearsal rooms designed to accommodate everything from small chamber ensembles to full orchestras.
The building was developed from an earlier industrial site, with the preserved facade of Rowe's Lead Works from the 1920s still standing on Berkeley Street. This conservation shows how the location has been transformed from its manufacturing past into a modern cultural venue.
The center serves as a working rehearsal space where musicians prepare their performances for public audiences, making the creative process partly visible to visitors. This working relationship between rehearsal and performance shapes how the space is used daily.
The center sits at the intersection of Berkeley Street and Holliday Street in the city center and is easy to reach from surrounding areas. Information about upcoming events and ticket purchasing is available on-site for planning your visit.
The building unusually combines historical architecture with modern design, integrating the old factory facade into a contemporary music center. This blend of old and new creates a distinctive character that makes the location's industrial heritage visible to visitors.
