Snape Maltings, Concert hall and arts centre in Suffolk, England

The Snape Maltings complex includes an 800-seat concert hall, art galleries, shops, and educational spaces along the River Alde in Suffolk.

The Victorian industrial buildings of Snape Maltings transformed from a malt house into a concert venue in 1967, receiving Grade II listed status.

The venue serves as the primary location for the Aldeburgh Festival, presenting classical music performances and supporting emerging musicians through educational programs.

The concert hall maintains regular public transport connections from Aldeburgh and Ipswich, with dedicated parking areas available for event attendees.

Benjamin Britten selected this former industrial complex for its location and architecture, leading to its development as a professional music center.
