Queen Elizabeth Hall is a concert and performing-arts facility on the South Bank of London. It is part of the arts complex under Southbank Centre that includes the Royal Festival Hall a short distance nearby.

Queen Elizabeth hall stands on the site of the former Shot Tower which was demolished in 1967. It has a capacity of 900 people. Linked to it is another facility called Purcell Room with an additional seating of 370 and is used for recitals. Both the Queen Elizabeth Hall and Purcell Room were built in 1967, in what is known as brutalist architecture, designed to avoid competing in scale and presence with the Royal Festival Hall.

How to reach Queen Elizabeth Hall

Take the Bakerloo Line, Jubilee Line or Northern Line to Waterloo Line and walk a short distance from there.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
