Birmingham Town Hall is a Grade I listed concert and meeting venue in Victoria Square, Birmingham, England. It was created as a home for the Birmingham Triennial Music Festival established in 1784 and for public meetings.

The Hall closed in 1996 for a £35 million refurbishment, undertaken by Wates Construction, that has seen the Town Hall brought back to its original glory with its 6,000-pipe organ still in place.

Acoustic Dimensions began working with the Hall during the planning stages of the renovation providing much of the initial acoustic design. In 2007, at the completion of the renovation, AD provided acoustics commissioning services to make sure the room functioned as intended acoustically.
