Stromness Community Centre and Town Hall

Stromness Community Centre.

Situated in the heart of Stromness, the Town Hall is a converted church just off the main through fare. It is an excellent concert venue, seating up to 300 and with arguably the best acoustics in Orkney. Modular staging up to 40m2 is available, adapting to any layout required. A Fazioli Grand piano is also on site. Retaining the character of a church, with oak flooring and stained glass windows, the Town Hall is also an ideal wedding venue.
