New Events Assistant for Sheffield’s Victoria Hall

The Foundry Sheffield has has appointed a new Events Assistant as its programme of activities at Sheffield’s iconic Victoria Hall continues to grow.

The Foundry Sheffield has been running the celebrated listed building since 2015, ensuring its safety and operating it in the interests of all tenants, users and visitors, with the ultimate aim of improving the lives of people throughout the city.

As the building becomes increasingly popular as both an events and conference space, though, Chrissie Pallett has been brought in to help with increased demand.

“We are certain that Chrissie will be a real asset as we move forward,” said Organisation Manager Rose Durant.

“She will be working both front of house and behind the scenes, supporting the customer journey from start to finish and ensuring that every rented space within the building is looking great.

“As we now move firmly into 2023, we are looking forward to our busiest year to date and one that will truly establish the Victoria Hall as one of Sheffield city centre’s most vibrant and popular events spaces.”

Currently used by more than 1,500 people every week, organistations already working out of the Victoria Hall’s range of offices include Age Active, Assist and City of Sanctuary.

The Sunday Centre provides food and support to the city’s homeless communities on a Sunday afternoon and the building is also used by many other charitable organisations offering a wide variety of activities, classes and social opportunities.

The famous main hall is already a popular venue for choral, instrumental and other events and South Yorkshire’s finest amateur orchestra, The Sheffield Philharmonic, holds its weekly rehearsals and the majority of its concert season performances there.
