Highlights of the Bridgewater Hall
One of the unique features of Bridgewater Hall is that it’s constructed on rows of isolation bearings and steel springs to reduce external noise. Inside, you’ll find a massive pipe organ with 5,500 pipes and 4 manuals that’s the centrepiece of the auditorium. Outside, you’ll see Ishinki Touchstone, a sculpture made of Carrara marble by Kan Yasuda, and a sculpture of Sir John Barbirolli.
The concert hall features an array of emerging and established artists and bands. Some of the past acts include Van de Graaf Generator, Jamie Cullum, Joe Satriani, ‘Anything for Love – the Meatloaf Story’ and Go West.
