Been there for a music concert and found it great place. Beautiful interiors, and exceptionally the light changes during the concert as the sun sets due to the large glass roof. Staff was e tr extra super cool and helpful. Really enjoyed classic music.Service: 5/5
Wigmore Hall is undoubtedly one of my favourite venues in London for classical music. Its intimate size creates the perfect setting, offering an immersive experience without sacrificing the beauty and elegance of the hall. Despite being smaller than some other concert venues, it consistently attracts world-class talent, making it a cultural gem in the heart of the city. The facilities are well-maintained, and the staff are always friendly and professional, contributing to an overall excellent experience. One of the most remarkable aspects is the programme offering £5 tickets for many performances to people aged 35 and under. It’s an incredible initiative that makes high-quality performances accessible to a wider audience. We’re incredibly lucky to have a venue like Wigmore Hall in London, and it’s a place I will always treasure.
Great concert hall + perfect size to connect with the music. Basically classical in best sense, but with wonderfully diverse programmes and sense of adventure. All in. Central and very well connected location - with good bar and supportive staff .....Service: 5/5
Watched a musical recitation in a very comfortable seating area. Also easy access to people with disabilities.Rooms: 4/5
Lovely afternoon celebrating my Mum's 84th birthday, listening to a string quartet. We enjoyed a coffee in the peaceful cafe/bar downstairs before the performance. All the staff were very welcoming and the acoustics in the hall were great. Reasonably priced tickets too.Rooms: 5/5
The hall is lovely, what is really UNACCEPTABLE is this £4 booking fee when I tried to book a ticket online. This put me off and I did not get the ticket, the booking fee, if there is any, should not be more than some pence or around a pound, that I'd understand, this was 15% of the ticket price, what's going on????Rooms: 5/5
Great place for a concert. Beautiful interiors, and exceptionally the light changes during the concert as the sun sets due to the large glass roof.
Wigmore Hall is a real gem among concert halls in London. Its historic atmosphere and impressive acoustics create ideal conditions for enjoying great music. Performances here always impress with their quality and professionalism. I recommend it for lovers of classical music and refined atmosphere.Rooms: 4/5
Great music venue! Always has top quality musicians and the hall itself is beautiful.
Last night, I experienced something that made me question why people still go to listen to performances of fine music from far ages. Should it be craving for the lost craft that once strove for perfection, or is it a ritual that became empty with time? I was sat in the middle of Wigmore Hall, paid top seats, ready to enjoy Schubert sung and accompanied by some of the greatest interpreters, sure about the answer. Almost immediately after the performance started though, an annoying, irregularly intervalled bleep in the background coming from the right side started making it impossible to focus on any other note. I'm quite sure it came from a recording device fixed on the wall, pointed at the stage. Audience started to turn their head, try to cover the offended hear. No-one dared to interrupt the pianist and the tenor: they groaned very quietly, feeling trapped from that torture planned to last for one hour and a half without interval. My group of four was the exception. We left the hall in between songs. The Wigmore Hall staff, preoccupied we could disturb the already disturbed performance, accompanied us closer to the exit. They said they couldn't interrupt the performance or should I say the ritual to investigate a resolution, even though they acknowledged the problem. Going back to the original question: why places like Wigmore Hall even exist? If it's not for audiences to enjoy the highest music, is it all now down to an empty liturgy made of prominent names shareable on electronic devices, over electronic platforms, where an algorithm filters out machine bleeping and tortured audience groanings? It seems the answer in Wigmore Hall is clear. I hope the answer in other venues can still be different, despite this times. And if you read this and one day you find yourself in a similar situation, please consider leaving if the venue is fighting against you enjoying the performance. Be polite with music, not with whom failed to make you enjoy it.
