The Bridgewater Hall

We provide opportunities for schools, community groups and individuals to get involved with the work of the Hall. Whether you're taking your first steps into the world of music or a professional looking for new ideas, use this part of the site to discover what we can offer you. Our Learning and Participation programme is funded by SMG Europe Holdin... gs Ltd, who operate the building, and by The Bridgewater Hall Community Education Trust. These two organisations work closely together to achieve our aims of innovative, responsive community engagement. The Bridgewater Hall is a delivery partner for both MYHub and the Greater Manchester Music Hub. We're closely involved in the city's Age Friendly Manchester Cultural Offer, and are part of a network developing Manchester's offer for the Family Arts Festival each October. We're excited by the potential for partnership working to help reach new audiences and communities, and to create a better participatory arts offer for Greater Manchester. In 2013 we commissioned a major consultation with audiences and stakeholders to learn more about what we could offer people across Greater Manchester. This feedback has informed our planning for 2013-16 - if you're interested, you can download the reports on the right. We're always interested in your ideas for our programme, and in forming new partnerships within Greater Manchester. If you have an idea which might help us to meet our aims, please contact us at any time.Read More
