Festival Hub: Trades Hall - Evatt Room

The Evatt Room is on the first floor, on the south side of the building.
Get to the venue by heading through the southern doors out of the Loading Dock Bar and then up the stairs.
To get there without use of the stairs, head out the northern doors of the Loading Dock Bar and then to your immediate left there is a lift. From there head towards Solidarity Hall and then left to the southern part of the building.

This intimate space with a raised stage and floor level seating is where you'll be able to catch different styles of comedy shows from sketch to clowning to experimental, and of course - stand-up. There is also some cabaret and theatre on show in the Evatt Room.
