Lunchtime concerts
LIVE in the King's Hall lunchtime concerts take place on Thursdays in the Armstrong Building. Concerts start at 13:15 and last for around 45 minutes.
The free lunchtime concerts are made possible largely due to the contributions made by members of the audience. To help support the concerts, why not become a Friend of King's Hall?
Student performances
Student performances offer an opportunity for music students to showcase work in progress. They take place each Thursday at 16:00 in the King's Hall.
