The Drill Hall Theatre is an intimate space licensed to accomodate 103 seated guests. If you’re looking for a venue to host your next class, workshop or performance, check out our session rates below and contact the Theatre Administrator. Only acoustic music is permitted at the Drill Hall as we are in a residential area.
The Theatre is available for hire when it is not being used for Drill Hall Theatre Company performances, rehearsals, or classes. Due to the high demand for the space, preference is given to performance-related bookings by not-for-profit organisations.
THE DRILL HALL IS CURRENTLY CLOSED FOR NEW BOOKINGS AND FULLY BOOKED FOR THE NEXT THREE MONTHS.
WE WILL RESPOND TO ANY BOOKING REQUESTS WHEN WE RE-OPEN FOR BOOKING SYSTEM ON JULY 10, 2025.

INCLUSIONS AND EXTRAS:
A one time casual activity will need to pay for 3 hour hire even if they intend to use the hall for less time than this.*
Casual activities cannot use any sound, lighting equipment or access the backstage areas.
Any sets for theatre productions will be screened by a curtain and participants are not to enter the curtained area. Please discuss whether there will be a set on stage with the Theatre Manager when requesting your booking date.
A Drill Hall Theatre technician will be present at all performances that require tech and this is included in the cost of your hire. Any time required beyond the assigned time will be charged in addition to the totals listed in the table.
As the Drill Hall Theatre is in a residential area sound and amplified music must be kept to an average of 70 decibels an hour. Therefore many musical performances are not suitable at the Drill Hall Theatre due to these sound restrictions.
Please read through the Drill Hall Theatre tech specs and speak to our Theatre Technician as soon as possible, there may be items you will need to hire, in particular if you plan to have amplified music.
PLEASE NOTE: Hall hire is subject to availability & Committee Approval
