Technical Capabilities
The Festival Hall currently has a very limited technical capability as standard, with very basic lighting and sound provisions available.
We do not currently have a complete Technical Specification for the Venue, however this is being drawn up to be ready shortly after the completion of our New Rigging Works in July 2025. We estimate this will be available for September 2025.
