Volunteer Hall - Galashiels
Totally refurbished in 1991 the hall provides a fine setting for concerts, shows, dinners, dances, weddings, exhibitions, conferences, sales, coffee mornings and other social and community functions. Features of the hall are the lighting grid which covers the entire hall, moveable staging and retractable tiered seats which gives many options for layouts for concerts or drama. Early booking is advised for weekends but many midweek evenings remain available at short notice.
