Halifax Piece Hall

The Halifax Piece Hall is a Grade I listed building in Halifax, less than 15 minutes away from Brighouse. It was built in 1779 as a cloth hall for handloom weavers to sell the woollen cloth “pieces” they had produced.

After a multi million pound restoration in 2017, the Piece Hall now hosts music concerts and a variety of small, independent shops from West Yorkshire.

    The Easter market was lovely a great venue. Would definitely recommend. The little shops are different selling thing you dont see everywhere.

    This magnificent building has been wonderfully restored and well worth a visit. Unfortunately, quite a lot of shops weren't open but I bought an amazing jumper in the Jitterbug Jean shop. The sourdough toasted brie and onion chutney sandwich at The Bakery was amazing. Pity I didn't have room for one of the delicious looking cakes.

    A charming destination that makes your day a delightful one... I have fascination for architectures that have historical significance. Piece Hall built in 1779 is a special one. Such a privilege that this masterpiece is just my next door...🤩

    Visually, the Piece Hall venue looks amazing, especially after dark. It's essentially a large courtyard surrounded by sandstone Georgian warehouses. Beautifully lit, it's open air, so sound quality will vary depending on conditions. AIR sounded pretty good and the gig looked stunning. All the staff were super-helpful and friendly. Halifax is a lovely town, btw, and everyone seemed friendly to talk to. If I had a quibble...I'm not convinced the balcony tickets we had were worth the extra cost. Yeah, you'd stay dry if it was raining, but the balcony is just a fairly narrow corridor overlooking the square and quite far back from the stage with no seating. If you go to the bar or toilet, chances are someone will have nicked your spot by the time you get back Also, £16 for a pint and a vodka and coke from plastic glasses is a bit of a liberty. Toilet provision is very limited for balcony users. There are 4 or 5 individual toilets that were unisex as far as I could tell, and there was a queue at the end. Apart from that, I think this is a great venue and lovely to visit during the day. Really nice shops and good food.
