Benaroya Hall, Concert hall in downtown Seattle, United States.
Benaroya Hall is a concert venue in downtown Seattle with two performance spaces of different sizes. The larger auditorium seats about 2,500 people while a smaller recital hall accommodates around 536 guests, allowing for both large symphonic performances and more intimate shows.
The building opened in 1998 following a major fundraising effort and philanthropic support. Its construction marked a turning point for Seattle's cultural development and established a dedicated space for orchestral performances in the city.
The Seattle Symphony performs regularly here, drawing audiences for classical concerts and performances by musicians from around the world. The hall has become a gathering place where different types of performances mix together throughout the year.
The hall sits close to a light rail station, making it easy to reach by public transportation. Covered walkways connect to nearby parking areas, and the main entrance is straightforward to find from the street.
The performance halls float on rubber pads that absorb vibrations from outside sources. This engineering choice was necessary because an old railroad tunnel runs directly underneath the building.
