About Venue

Located in the historic market town of Diss on the border of Norfolk and Suffolk, and at the gateway to the Waveney Valley, the Corn Hall is an impressive Grade II listed building which was originally built as a corn exchange.

In 2017 a £3.4m regeneration project was completed in the ‘Heritage Triangle’ in Diss, of which the Corn Hall was a key focus. The result is a vibrant venue featuring the main hall, a cafe, a bar, 2 gallery spaces and a studio/meeting room. The spaces are flexible with a range of technical equipment installed and are available to hire for corporate events, weddings, parties, classes, workshops and so on.

Always good things to see and do from visual arts to live theatre and films. However, during the very hot weather this year it was a big problem not having air conditioning

The cafe is nicely presented with plenty of space in a pleasant environment. There’s also seating outside. A good selection of drinks and a small selection of cakes and scones.

Great Comedy gig with Marcus Brigstock and Scott Bennett who was excellent. The Corn Hall is a great venue but the hall (sold out) was uncomfortably close to a sauna, could do with more ventilation. The bar queues were long but the staff were all super helpful and we had a good time overall, and will come back for sure.
