Victoria Theatre Concert Hall Open House

After more than 4.5years of major renovation, Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall is FINALLY OPEN!

I was informed by a fellow art lover that there is a 2 day OPEN HOUSE via National Arts Council website link that she passed me to via WeChat.

After a tired Saturday (Bukit Gombak + Ford Factory), I decided to visit Victoria Hall after all.

There were some free performances available but the one that I looked most forward to, ended as a semi disappointment due to overwhelming crowds coming for the free performances. Heard from one of the usher that some of the crowds came as early as 1 1/2 hours for the free performances. But I did get to enjoy the free music outside the hall from the live TV display through.

By the way, all upcoming show and concert tickets for Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall can be purchase through Sistic.
