The Royal Festival Hall is part of the South Bank Centre, and puts on an array of musical and dance performances of all styles and a lot of pop concerts are held here. From June to August there is a series of summer events always worth checking out, and an orchestral season runs from September to June. Each November sees the London Jazz Festival. The large hall holds around 3,000 people, but this can vary depending on the size of the performance. There are dining facilities that range from smaller cafes and snack bars to renowned eatery The People's Palace. Aside from the concerts themselves, the Royal Festival Hall often has several small photographic or contemporary art exhibitions on the go. They're often unpublicized, but if you happen to be on the South Bank, it's worth popping in to the hall to see if anything interesting is on show.
