The expansion will include:

• A 3,660-square-foot Education and Learning Center with rehearsal space and a venue for educational programs, receptions, and community gatherings.
• A three-story lobby with overlooking terraces and enhanced amenities.
• Significantly more backstage space for artists, with amenities like dressing rooms, a musician lounge, music library, practice spaces, recording studios, and more.
• New passenger drop-off locations with more accessible entryways.

As SLSO renovates Powell Hall concerts will continue at different locations throughout St. Louis in 2023/2024. They are working with venue partners to ensure an excellent experience for everyone throughout the Summer and the upcoming season. 

The Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra is really excited to take music out in the community and across the region," Boutwell says. "Throughout next season, our primary venues will be Stifel Theater in downtown Saint Louis and at Tou Hill Performing Arts Center out of the campus of the University of Missouri, Saint Louis,"
