Philharmonic Hall

The current Philharmonic Hall was built in 1939 by Herbert J Rowse. It was built on the site of the previous hall, on Hope Street Liverpool, providing Liverpool with some of the best acoustics and facilities in Europe.

The original Philharmonic Hall opened on 27 August, 1849, financed by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Society. It was Designed by John Cunningham

Acoustically the building was considered perfect by everyone in the region and Thomas Beecham considered it to be the best in Europe.

A loose spark in the organ loft started a fire which destroyed the building,on 5 July 1933.

The hall is owned and managed by the RLPS.
