WASHINGTON HALL

Washington HallConstructed in 1881, Washington Hall is the original performing arts facility on the Notre Dame campus. With the opening of the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center in the 2004 fall semester, the Student Activities Office entered into an agreement with the Provost's Office to transform Washington Hall from an academic building into a student-centered venue.

The building is divided into four main areas:

  • MAINSTAGE
    571 seat auditorium suitable for theatrical productions, musicals, pageants, and lectures. Reservation requests for student groups are made through SAOnline. Departments interested in using the Mainstage may contact Ron Grisoli, Washington Hall Manager.
