GMU Center for the Arts Concert Hall is the principal performance hall within the Center for the Arts on George Mason University's Fairfax campus. Opened in 1990 and designed as an adaptable performing arts venue, it provides 1,935 seats across the orchestra level and upper Grand Tier/balcony. Its program ranges from symphonic concerts, opera and jazz to theater and dance productions, making the hall an important cultural venue for both the university and the wider Washington metropolitan area.
Inside, the auditorium is designed to combine clear views of the stage with comfortable seating and generous legroom. A notable feature is its adjustable acoustic shell, which can enhance the presence of an orchestra, chorus, soloist or chamber ensemble, while the stage can also be configured for larger theatrical and dance productions. Lobby concession bars offer a selection of snacks and beverages before performances and during intermission.
The venue is located at 4373 Mason Pond Dr, Fairfax, United States, on the George Mason University campus. Mason Pond Parking Deck is immediately adjacent to the Center for the Arts and provides pedestrian access to the venue, while passengers can be dropped off or picked up directly in front of the building on Mason Pond Drive.
