About Great Hall Exeter: Layout, History & Architecture

Constructed in 1964 as a centrepiece of the University of Exeter’s Streatham Campus, the Great Hall exemplifies the functional modernist architecture prevalent in post-war institutional builds. Its design prioritises versatility, with a large, largely unadorned main auditorium featuring high ceilings and expansive floor space. The hall primarily functions as a multi-purpose venue, accommodating everything from university graduations to large-scale live music concerts.

For standing events, the main floor offers a vast open area, allowing for significant crowd density. A permanent balcony provides elevated, fixed seating, offering an alternative perspective and generally clear sightlines over the main floor. The architectural approach here values utility over intricate detailing; the hall's materiality, typical of its era, means that while sightlines are generally unhindered by pillars, the inherent acoustics are lively and prone to natural reverberation. Consequently, the live music experience is heavily reliant on the installed professional sound reinforcement (PA) system to achieve clarity and impact across the large volume.

The Live Experience & Current Schedule

Entering the Great Hall, patrons are directed through a spacious foyer area, typically housing temporary bar facilities and merchandise stalls. For standing concerts, the main floor transforms into a bustling pit, with density increasing closer to the stage. Those seeking a more relaxed viewing experience or clearer sightlines may opt for the tiered seating available in the permanent balcony. The atmosphere, largely driven by the event itself, can range from energetic and immersive for live bands to more contemplative for seated performances. With 1 live performances scheduled, upcoming entry prices start from £143.06. The next confirmed event on the calendar is Passenger on 21st September 2027.
