Stavanger Konserthus

Stavanger, Norway
Jon Ingemundsen

This 148,000-square-foot arts center is a vibrant and exciting new venue for all genres of musical performance, ranging from pop, rock, classical music, and musicals. The facility is part of a larger cultural initiative to provide the local community with a thriving arts scene.

At the heart of the building are two performance halls, more or less similar in volume, but opposite and complementary in content; one hall is a 1,500-seat concert hall, fine-tuned for natural acoustic, especially the philharmonic orchestra, and one hall is a 800-seat multipurpose theatre serving many functions—amplified music like rock and jazz, as well as musicals, dance, congresses, exhibitions, and banquets.
