Royal Festival Hall at Southbank

I went there for a graduation service. It was stunning. We had a great view from row F. It was a little tight but we managed. The views of outside from floor 4 were stunning. The decor was impressive. We had tea and cake, it was a bit pricey but you don't go every day. The South Bank is my hot spot in London. I'll be back in the summer!

A grand old place, but rather concrete. That said, alot is done, not to hide it, but blend it in. The decor inside and out is all vibrant and invigorating. It sits beautifully on the Thames in the South Bank area with lovely view ls all round. There are 6 levels, but some are kind of mezzanine. It has a few bars, lots of toilets, and lifts. The whole place is well laid out and fairly easily accessible, but can be awkward in a wheelchair to get from one side to another on certain floors. That said the staff are great and so helpful. The lift with a view to outside also makes a noise which turns out to be a song as you listen and then arrive on your floor so it rather entertaining. The building seems so look it between a blue side and a green side. This is because it is so big and so helps visitors find their way around easier. The hall itself is very big with great acoustics, but you really would hope for that in a place called the Festival Hall:) Nearest train station is Waterloo which is right across the road from it (you need to come out the main entrance, cross the road and go through the passage underneath the rail bridge... Then you are there. As you do that, if you need wheelchair access, look for the lift which is on the left side of the building as you look at it. Nearest tubes are Waterloo, Westminster and Embankment (if you arrive at Victoria). The London Eye and London Aquarium are right by it. The Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and the Mall leading to Trafalgar Square are just across the bridge. Enjoy

Amazing building and fun place to go for shows... However, it is showing its age and not sure how much money is being put back into it's maintenance and up keep: broken and unsafe seats, but still being used, dirty hand rails on the stairways (hands were disgustingly filthy after using), glass lifts were jam-packed, not enough staff to say or point out that there were other lifts available and carpet looking a bit worse for wear in places!! Overall, a venue that should be experienced but not sure with the seemingly lack of proper facility management and maintenance for how long the positive enjoyment of such a great venue will last!!

I attended “NieR Orchestra Concert: 12024 the end of data”. The seats were good, but I got a bit lost trying to find my door. There are people in the entrance who will point to where do you need to go. Before the concert they sold merchandising, but it was super busy. I arrived 30 minutes before the concert, but the line wait was longer than that, so I gave up on the merchandising.

We often go to RFH to see orchestra performances, the sound is amazing through there no matter where you sit to be honest. The staff have always been friendly and helpful to us with a smile on their face too. Overall a smooth running theatre.
