SORRY - SPACES FOR PIECE HALL ARE NOW FILLED.
In June and July Halifax Piece Hall becomes the venue for over 16 gigs, each with around 6000 people attending. Festival Angel teams will work in and around the Piece Hall on these evenings offering support and help to those who are or could become vulnerable. This is new for 2023. The teams will also support people as they leave the venue offering directions and potential support to the nearest taxis, train station, car parks or other town centre bars. The times will vary (but will be likely to be 6pm - 11pm) depending on the audience for each gig. See below for the application form which includes the dates (other dates may be added).
