About New Century Hall: Layout, History & Architecture
Opened in 1963 as part of the ambitious Co-operative Wholesale Society (CWS) headquarters, New Century Hall is an exemplary mid-century modernist structure. Its design emphasizes clean lines and functional concrete elements, typical of its post-war corporate aesthetic. The main auditorium, situated on the first floor, is a substantial open space capable of accommodating 1,000 patrons for standing events or 700 in a seated configuration. Historically famed for its sprung dance floor, the hall features a prominent stage and a small, dedicated balcony area at the rear.
Sightlines from the main floor are generally unobstructed given the open layout, while the rear balcony provides an elevated vantage point. Acoustically, the large, hard-surfaced interior requires careful sound reinforcement. The inherent live nature of the concrete shell means the venue's sonic character relies heavily on a robust and well-calibrated PA system to deliver clarity and impact across the space, rather than offering natural acoustic warmth.
The Live Experience & Current Schedule
Access to the hall is via the main entrance on Hanover Street, leading to a journey up to the first-floor auditorium, either by stairs or lift. Upon entry, patrons will find bars situated within the main space, facilitating refreshment without lengthy excursions from the performance area. For high-demand events, the main standing floor can become quite dense, offering direct proximity to the stage. The rear balcony provides a more relaxed, elevated view, offering an alternative perspective on the performance. With 22 live performances scheduled, upcoming entry prices start from £44.58. The next confirmed event on the calendar is Mica Millar on 26th September 2026.
