Yonsei University concert halls
연세대학교 대강당 · 백주년기념관 · Seoul
Two campus halls in Sinchon, ten minutes from Hongdae, for jazz, fan concerts and touring acts.
Yonsei is one of Korea’s oldest and best-known universities, and two of its buildings double as concert halls. The Grand Auditorium, about 1,600 seats, sits near the top of the main avenue; the Centennial Hall, about 800, is inside the main gate. Both host touring jazz and pop acts, K-pop fan concerts and classical recitals.
The campus, with its stone Underwood Hall and tree-lined avenue, is worth a walk before a show, and Sinchon and Hongdae around it are two of Seoul’s liveliest student districts.

Getting there
- Check which hall is on your ticket: the Centennial Hall is just inside the gate on the left, the Grand Auditorium five to ten minutes further up.
- Sinchon’s restaurants and bars start right outside the gate, and Hongdae is one stop away for a late night.
- Taxis queue badly outside the gate after a show; walk down to Sinchon Station instead.
Where to stay
Sinchon and Hongdae both have plenty of hotels and guesthouses within 15 minutes’ walk or one subway stop.
