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

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
