Howard Assembly Room

The Howard Assembly Room is a captivating, inspiring performance venue loved equally by performers and guests for its blend of Victorian and contemporary styling. The 300 capacity central Leeds venue is a fitting host to receive Opera North’s rich and varied performance programming. In the last three years alone, the Howard Assembly Room has welcomed thousands of guests to hundreds of ticketed events, and has firmly established itself as one of Yorkshire’s most important centres for progressive and diverse musical performances. And that’s not all. The venue also plays an important role in fuelling the Yorkshire cultural scene with a varied programme of events, gigs, films, talks and family workshops. Finally, the venue serves as vital rehearsal space for Opera North’s award winning Orchestra, and has recently launched as a unique venue for corporate and private hire.
