Welcome to our splendid concert venue at PLC Pymble!
All our concerts are held in the magnificent Gillian Moore Centre for Performing Arts at Pymble Ladies’ College. The auditorium has 500 seats on the main level and a further 250 in the balcony. There is provision for wheelchairs; if you wish to use these facilities, please telephone us a day or so before the concert you wish to attend. There is plenty of parking in the school grounds.
Pymble Ladies' College, in collaboration with leading Sydney architects, PMDL Architecture and Design, have created a truly state-of-the-art venue for the performing arts in the School grounds at Pymble. PMDL features a creative team which excels in the provision of architectural and interior design services.
The auditorium, officially opened in September 2005, has been designed to create a sense of intimacy between performers and the audience. With superb acoustics and efficient, all-seasons airconditioning, the main level of the auditorium accommodates an audience of 500 in raked continental seating to optimize sightlines. There is seating for a further 250 at the upper level, which is accessible by lift and where special wheelchair accommodation is provided.
How to access the centre
The venue is about ten minutes’ walk from Pymble railway station. Access by car is easy. From the Pacific Highway, turn down Livingstone Avenue (at the traffic lights), then right into Everton Street, bear right at the roundabout (do not turn left down Pymble Avenue) and then turn sharp right along Avon Road. The main entrance to the college is a short way on the left along Avon Road, but much more cost-free parking is available in the school grounds at the end of Avon Road (follow the road down the hill after it turns left further on). The five-minute walk from the lower car parks to the auditorium is along well lit walkways.
For further information, please call 9416 1866, 9498 4700 or 9876 3815.
