Theatre le Forum is one of Liège's most distinctive historic performing arts venues, opened in 1922 and renowned for its richly decorated Art Deco architecture. Ornamental features, gilded details, stained glass and an elaborate interior give the building the character of a classic European theatre. The auditorium can be adapted to different types of events and accommodates approximately 600 to 2,000 visitors depending on the configuration, hosting theatre productions, concerts, comedy shows, ballets and other live performances.
The interior is a major part of the venue experience. Seating arranged around the large stage, acoustics suited to live performance and the decorative Art Deco surroundings create an atmosphere that works for both more intimate shows and larger productions. Practical audience reception areas and cloakroom facilities are available, while additional hospitality and refreshment services may vary according to the event.
The venue is located at Rue Pont d'Avroy 12/14, Liège, Belgium, in the central part of the city. Public parking garages are available nearby, while the Pont d'Avroy (Hazinelle) and République Française bus stops are only a few minutes' walk away; the Sauvenière tram stop is also within a short walking distance. From this central area, the entrance is easily reached on foot along Rue Pont d'Avroy, while broader information about travelling around Liège and connections with other parts of the city can be found further down the page.
