Venue Hire

The Main Hall

Chapel Arts Centre Main Auditorium is available to hire for private functions both day and night. If you wish to use the sound & lighting equipment you will need to hire our technicians normally £65 (sound) & £72 (lighting) – more if the requirements are very complex.

The main auditorium at Chapel Arts Centre is noted for its brilliant natural acoustics. We also have a Yamaha G1 grand piano, which is included in the hire, although if you require the piano tuned on the day that is an additional £40.

Chapel Arts Centre is a community arts centre (as mandated in our lease and memorandum & articles of association) and as such seeks to support and engage with the community where appropriate. We have special rates for community groups, charities, educational organisations and anything of a direct community support nature. We also provide the auditorium space free of charge for charity fundraising events on certain nights, depending on our current community remit criteria.

Please contact Jan Cottington the Centre Manager (info@chapelarts.org or tel 01225 461700) for an appointment to discuss any proposals you wish to make.
