Reviews of Symphony Hall
S. W.Excellent night and world class performance. The review if for the symphony hall, not the acts that perform here.
The hall is easy to find and being close to Birmingham centre is surrounded with parking options. If you are commuting via train, Birmingham new street train station is a 5 minute walk away. It is also 100 yards away from the tram line, although never used this I do not know how the times marry up with start and finishes of the performances.
The lobby is well decorated inside with modern décor and was warm throughout. There are bars available on each floor serving a selection of alcoholic and soft drinks as well as light snacks. There is enough seating to allow around a 1/3 of the capacity to sit before any performance. Toilets are located throughout and even when using during the interval the quantity of facilities meant the line was very quick moving with little delay at all. The main area is grand with ornate décor and is well worth observing before or after the show. The seats were fairly comfortable and during the entire performance I never felt the need to adjust my position which is something I do regularly when attending the cinema. There was no where to put drinks down and the leg room was a little restrictive meaning holding any no sealable drinks until finished is the only option.
The only reason I wouldn't give this venue 5 stars is because of 2 reasons. Although there is a bar on each level, the division of staffing isn't well thought out and so depending which bar you go to you may stand in line for the entire interval in order to reach the front. It was raining lightly when we attended and during quieter parts of the performance the rain could be heard through the ceiling. This could perhaps use a thicker/denser soundproofing.
E. D.Great venue, staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Queue for the bar moved very quickly so we could get our drinks and get seated smoothly. The show hall itself is gorgeous - ornately, beautiful and spacious. The acoustics were fantastic and despite having tickets quite far back, we still got a fantastic view of the stage
The only downside I would say is that the particular show we went to encouraged the audience to stand up out of their seats and dance. Sadly, this meant that during some parts of the show myself & my disabled grandmother couldn't see anything (except the bum of the person in from of us!). I would recommend if visiting with anyone who uses a walking aide, to book disabled seats - we didn't think this was necessary as she has a walking stick and not a wheelchair but in hindsight we should have booked these seats.
Except for that, the whole experience of my visit from start to finish was absolutely phenomenal! 💯
D. H.Fabulous rock night at "Rock the Opera". Fantastic gig. We would definitely go again. BBC Concert Orchestra played fabulous rock. Towards the end people all got up and danced. Not to be missed if you enjoy Rock.
K. G.I and my mom attended Cliff Richard's concert here last night. The concert was wonderful (as expected). The venue was beautiful, clean and tidy, the staff that I interacted with were all polite, cheerful, friendly and helpful. The only issue was that with a mainly female audience, more women's toilets might have been helpful to reduce the queues, but I understand that isn't always practical or possible.
Overall, I would recommend this venue and would be happy to attend other events here.
J. C.Watched the Hans Zimmer vs John Williams show. Great show just amazing. Beautiful inside. Really was. The staff were great and had a good choice of drinks and some snacks before going in. Very good location in Birmingham and we stayed in the Premier Inn which was so close
B.As a live music venue the Symphony Hall Birmingham is one of the best I have attended. The acoustics are spot on and other facilities are easy to access, drinks are a quite expensive though.
Marillion the Group I saw on the night were also excellent, our view was from the Stalls seating close to the stage.
Be aware there is an additional clean air charge of £8 a day for older polluting vehicles in the city centre.
S. C.Went to see the bootleg beatles. This was a concert we booked 2 years ago and thankfully they honoured our tickets. We loved every second of it and will be going again 2022. I love the acoustics at the Symphony Hall. We had great seats. A must for beatles fans
T. G. N.Excellent venue where we watched Wardruna. Easy to get to & great looking. Well layed out & helpful staff . Wonderful sound & a very good view from the Circle.
K. G.Amazing concert last night, Del Amitri with support band The Byson Family. The Symphony Hall is wonderful with excellent acoustics. Easy to get to, less than a 15 minute walk from Grand Central train station.
P. S.My first visit to this lovey building very impressed with the place great acoustics plenty of leg room. Gabrielle was very good her backing ladies were terrific and band also good
