Tour and behind-the-scenes look at the building that is one of the UK's most successful music venues, led by the original architect.

You’ve sat in the Jim Marshall Auditorium, you’ve enjoyed the music, the ambience, the acoustics… but have you ever wondered how The Stables works as a building? What’s it like walking on the trampoline at the top of the main auditorium? How does fresh air reach you, and how do the essential communications reach the control desk? And what’s The Stables experience like for our visiting artists?

Led by architect Peter Hall, who will explain how The Stables was conceived, these Heritage Open Day tours will give you a unique opportunity to visit backstage areas and gain a better understanding of why The Stables is widely regarded as one of the UK’s finest music venues.
