Dear Members,
The HKIOA is organizing a Technical Visit to Shaw Auditorium. This auditorium is designed by Henning Larsen Architects, is a new landmark for the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). It is a versatile venue suitable for a wide range of events and activities. With a flexible design, the auditorium can seamlessly transform from a concert hall for large orchestras to a conference hall, lecture auditorium, proscenium theatre, and exhibition space, making it an ideal choice for various events. The auditorium features retractable seating, allowing for multiple seating arrangements. It can accommodate 850 attendees for concerts and over 1,300 attendees in flat-floor configurations. The Shaw Auditorium was honoured with the Gold Award in Architectural Acoustics at the Acoustic Award 2023 for its exceptional acoustic design, which ensures an immersive and captivating experience for all attendees. During the event, speakers will share insights on various aspects of the auditorium, including the technical challenges during its construction, the functions it serves, the AV system in place, and the considerations taken into account for the acoustics design. You are invited to join us for a technical visit to the Shaw Auditorium to explore its remarkable architecture, versatile functionality, and award-winning acoustics.
