Shanghai Concert Hall, Concert hall in Huangpu District, Shanghai, China

Shanghai Concert Hall is a concert venue in Huangpu District featuring European architectural design across two levels. The ground floor holds 640 seats while the upper floor has 482 seats, with a stage measuring 100 square meters.

The hall was founded in 1930 as Nanking Theatre and renamed Beijing Cinema in 1949 before becoming Shanghai Concert Hall in 1959. These name changes reflected the shifting political and cultural landscape of Shanghai's history.

The hall's name changed with the times: Nanking Theatre in 1930, Beijing Cinema in 1949, Shanghai Concert Hall in 1959. Its interior pairs sixteen red marble columns in the foyer with a stage whose adjustable acoustic panels are prized by architects and musicians. Violinist Isaac Stern, pianists Fou Ts'ong and Yin Chengzong, and the Philadelphia Orchestra's chamber ensemble have performed here.

The hall stands at the corner of Yan'an Road East and South Tibet Road in Huangpu District, a four-minute walk from Dashijie station on Metro lines 8 and 14; buses 18, 48, 71, 127 and 64 also stop nearby. The building was closed for over 300 days of renovation from March 2019 and reopened on 6 September 2020, so check the current programme before travelling.

On 15 April 2003 the 5,800-ton hall was first jacked up 1.7 metres, then moved 66.46 metres southeast and rotated 180 degrees, and lifted another 1.68 metres at the new site; the move finished on 1 January 2005. The hall reopened on 26 September 2008.
