Our world class performing arts venue Cedars Hall, opened in autumn 2016 and was designed by leading London architect, Eric Parry.

Cedars Hall provides the capacity for audiences of 350 in its main recital hall named Eavis Hall after Old Wellensian Michael Eavis, CBE, founder of the Glastonbury Festival. Eavis Hall is a flexible and modern performance space catering for many types of performances through adaptation of seating and platforms. Whilst the hall’s award-winning design was devised to give chamber musicians the very best acoustic experience, the flexibility of the technical specification means that this venue is accessible for performers of every discipline – for amplified music, dance, drama and lectures.

In addition to events in Eavis Hall, Cedars Hall provides rehearsal, teaching and performance space for the school’s 200 specialist musicians and serves as a hub for its significant community outreach, which provides music education (including workshops, concerts and masterclasses) for thousands of primary school children, elderly and disability groups in the South West each year.

Cedars Hall includes three further teaching and practice spaces, each with an adjoining unique observation facilities as well as the John Baxter Foyer, bar and state-of-the-art recording facilities.
