About Carnegie Hall

Carnegie Hall is a concert venue at Seventh Avenue and 57th Street that opened in 1891, designed by William Burnet Tuthill. It holds three halls: the 2,790-seat Stern Auditorium/Perelman Stage, Zankel Hall and Weill Recital Hall. Guided tours during the concert season walk you through Stern Auditorium, the Composers Gallery of rare scores and the Rose Museum. The Rose Museum, on the second floor, shows scores, letters and photographs from the hall's history and is free to enter.
