The Albert Hall 1890–1980 – A History of the Launceston Concert Hall | Dennis Hodgkinson | 1980 [USED – SC – Out of Print]

Dennis Hodgkinson's history of the Albert Hall in Launceston — the city's principal concert and civic hall, built in 1891 and documented here across its first ninety years, published to coincide with its 1980 re-launch after restoration works.

The Albert Hall has recently been at the centre of Launceston public debate following its latest major renovation — a project that attracted significant attention for its cost and the questions it raised about the hall's utilisation and future. This 1980 booklet gives the historical context: what the building is, what it has been used for across its life, and why it has mattered to Launceston as a civic and cultural venue.

An affordable piece of Launceston heritage history at $8.50 — worth adding to your order with other Launceston titles.
