Vara Concert Hall, Concert hall in Vara, Sweden

Vara Concert Hall is a municipal concert and conference venue in Vara, built in 2003 and connected to Lagmansgymnasiet; the two buildings cover about 4,000 square metres. Its main hall seats 517 and the Lilla salen 67, and a third stage, Sparbanken Blackbox, for 850 people was added in 2019. The main hall's curtain, I hear your name (the cave), was designed by Anders Widoff and woven by Handarbetets vänner.

Vara Concert Hall was inaugurated in September 2003, built together with Lagmansgymnasiet; the two buildings cover about 4,000 square metres. The Swedish source credits architect Kjell Hadin, while the English article names Blake J McConahy. In 2019 a third stage, Sparbanken Blackbox, was added with capacity for 850 people.

The hall produces its own concerts and rents its rooms to other event organisers. The municipal culture school also uses the building. In the main auditorium hangs I hear your name (the cave), a curtain designed by Anders Widoff and woven by Handarbetets vänner in 2003.

The building is joined to Lagmansgymnasiet, and together they cover about 4,000 square metres. The municipal culture school also uses the premises, and the hall rents rooms to other event producers and runs conference activities, so parts of the building may be busy outside show times.

The large concert hall's curtain, I hear your name (the cave), measures 8.5 by 4.9 metres and was made in 2003 by Handarbetets vänner after a design by Anders Widoff, with a hand-woven base, embroidery and an inset tapestry. Outside the entrance stands On Tour, a sculpture by the German artist quartet Inges Idee.
