Emilie K. Asplundh Concert Hall is one of West Chester University's principal performance venues and the largest performing arts space on its campus. Opened in 1927 and extensively renovated between 1998 and 2000, the hall accommodates up to 1,202 visitors and hosts concerts, musical performances, ceremonies and other large-scale stage events.
The interior is designed for music and live performances, with built-in sound, lighting and playback systems. The venue includes the main auditorium and a balcony, while visitors also have access to a lobby and box office. Wheelchair seating and hearing-assistance devices are available for guests who require them, although the balcony itself is not wheelchair accessible.
The hall is located inside Philips Memorial Building at 700 S High St, West Chester, United States, at the intersection of South High Street and University Avenue. The main lobby entrance is positioned beneath the building's central archway. Event visitors are directed to parking lots B, C and G or the Sharpless Parking Structure, all within a short walk of the entrance.
