Built in 1886 as the coal dealing centre of Great Britain, the Coal Exchange achieved fame in 1911 when the world's first million pound deal was struck within its walls. Today, the building forms an exciting concert venue, with its original architecture and interior columns, balcony and wood paneling preserved. The programme features much jazz and popular music, and for such a small place, some surprisingly famous names have appeared on the stage: The Manic Street Preachers, Ultravox and Jools Holland have all performed here. Early booking is recommended as concerts often sell out - online booking is possible through the website. The centre is also available for corporate and private hire.
