Why go
Built as assembly rooms in the nineteenth century, the building still connects Bristol's public music life with its earlier social spaces. The eight-column Corinthian portico makes a strong street-facing landmark at the junction of Queen's Road and Whiteladies Road. A concert gives a reason to see the auditorium in use.
What to look for
- Eight Corinthian columns form the main portico.
- The building stands at the Queen's Road and Whiteladies Road junction.
- Public music events bring its historic auditorium into use.
Useful to know
- Check the music programme before planning an interior visit.
- View the portico from the public street if no event suits your day.
- Combine it with the nearby university precinct or Clifton walk.
