The acoustics are amazing. The sound from the stage was audible without the need of mics. The spaces and the ambience where calm and soothing. The auditorium hosts a middle section, two sides and the balcony sitting sections. There are rest rooms. The venue is quite large to host a large number of people. It has multiple entrance/exits. The stage is well spread out. An appealing dark brown wood like theme can be found in the auditorium with comfortable seats and enough space for people to pass by while you seat.

Today was the final performance of the Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestras spring season.It was a wonderful way to end the week and start Dezemba.While Im not acquainted with the song listing, what I heard was the beautiful expression of disciplined collaboration.Im sorry to have missed the rehearsal session at the start of the season, where they played from the Porgy and Bess songbook. Jazz is more my flavour but, its always good to throw a taste-breaker into the mix.A more diverse audience would be great for the music, so I hope to see the JPO crossover to other canons of music.Lovely auditorium. Great sound.Im getting ready for the summer season 👏🏾.

Very good setting for a graduation ceremony. I would however suggest to people not fimilar with the venue to request centre stage seating because people are usually seated to the left or right if the stage and the angel is not allowing guests to see graduates when graduates are seated

The Linder Auditorium is definitely worth a visit. The quality of performances, acoustics and general feel of this place is amazing. I just wish there was more taking place here.

Had my graduation ceremony here... Beautiful place

Popular venue for Johannesburg Symphonic Orchestra productions..Attended awesome performance tonight, conducted by Richard Cox, of The Symphony Choir of Johannesburg performing Handels Messiah..What an uplifting performance...

It the best for hosting events and I love the art pieces

A mainstay of the Joburg cultural scene. Good acoustics. Main venue for Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra -excellent programs, artists.

One of the best Symphonies I have listened to . Xmas 2017 show was spectacular and fun for the entire family . Presented by the Johannesburg Symphony --- The choir was out of this world

Great venue for a graduation, had a good time making my degree official. Beautiful venue.

Amazing and lovely time. Great performance W.A.M

This is a great venue and the Buskaid is one event to never miss.

Awesome experience at the Wits Linder Auditorium, where Quava, a choral group blessed us with a lovely event.

Great auditorium👌🏼

Great venue for events like merit awards

Greatness has been left on that stage. The area is beautiful, the theater is accessible and the place is always clean. Great standard has been set by Linder.

A local legend of great live music, mostly classical. Expect to see local and international stars, especially our top conductors and soloists.The acoustics are good and the theatre space is warm, if a bit 80s. Some seats on the side are a bit cramped but not too bad.Its a good night out and parking is not to bad. The coffee shop usially serves wine and coffee, but also and cakes and other foods at interval.

This is a lovely hall and a good size for both symphony orchestras and concert-goers. It has a bar and ample lobby space for people to mingle.One of the only negatives, is that the roof leaks during excessive rain. Thankfully this didn’t affect the concerts I attended, as it wasn’t a sold out performance, so we were able to move seats.

The acoustics in this place are amazing. There are different exists which are great in case of emergency or if the auditorium has a lot of people and theyre all exiting at the same time.. it can host a graduation and a school talent show. Which you book and pay for.

Great acoustics. Mozart would have been proud. Linder is definitely the place to be for any CLASSICAL event.

A very beautiful auditorium. The acoustics are amazing. It is evident that this is not a new building but it is well maintained

Exquisite JPO performance. The seats are really comfortable and the acoustics are phenomenal. Would give it 6 stars if I could.

An excellent venue for concerts and performances. But its best not to book seats on the raised wings on either side as the view of the stage extreme on the side one is sitting is obscured.

Great venue for music lovers. Acoustics and sight lines are good. Provision is made for those who are in wheelchairs. Anyone with knee problems should rather book seats downstairs, theres rather generous legroom there. Upstairs in either of the side wings, you have rather cramped legroom.

Good acoustics and good visibility from just about everywhere - except the very front row, perhaps. A really nice venue for the Joburg Philharmonic concerts. But the bar area is more like a canteen than a theatre bar and the queue to pay, the queue to trade in your voucher for a drink is daft. The queue to drive out is also slow on busy nights, with every car having to stop at boom gates. So a nice venue marred by the admin.

Lovely venue with comfortable seats. The aircon needs cleaning (visible mold dust by ceiling outlets). Enough parking if youre prepared to walk a bit.

Really dated infrastructure, poor process and the cafeteria sells premium drinks at paypoints which the bar has no stock of. Traffic getting in and out is also a pain. Best avoid.

My main reason for giving 4 stars and not 5 is that there is no lift available. The seats are comfortable, and there is sufficient leg room (where I was sitting, anyway).

One of the few venues where you can experience a full orchestra and excellent choir. The last time I was there, the mens toilets were being renovated and the stand-in toilets were dirty and riddled with graffiti.

The cafeteria has been upgraded and redecorated: warmer and more inviting than it was. More seating too.Still too few serving staff on duty for weekend and weeknight concerts.The auditorium? Top notch accoustics.

It is always a nice venue to go and watch a musical show. The acoustics and viewing are great from any seat and the seating is also very comfortable. There are also plenty of bathrooms that are always clean.

A large but 4normal auditorium where classical music events by the JPO takes place. Parking was sufficient and all other amenities standard.

Great place to hear classical music. Parking easy. Snacks and coffee avaialble at store

Awesome facility! Love attending the classical music concerts by Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra, and the choirs they play the accompaniment for from time to time. Attend these concerts, you will not be disappointed!!!

Excellent venue for performances. It would be nice if they opened their back gate after the show the shorten the queues.

Performance was great. Ability/process to get a drink needs to be improved as just takes too long

I loved the place .enjoyed music.it was super!A group of young people who have decided to share their talent with those who love music!

Very clean and tidy. Has a cafe and dining area to enjoy before a performance.

I have been to watch the Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra here several times. Its a fantastic venue for such an experience. The JPO always perform with such passion. Its always a pleasure to go watch them.

Lovely old venue, not very modern but acoustics were excellent. Seating is a bit old but still comfortable with plenty of legroom in the main section of the venue. Does have a restaurant attached but we did not try it. There is also a coffee shop and seating for intervals. Google Maps takes you to the wrong side of the campus so beware. Entrance is through the WITS gate (old JCE gate). Parking is dark so if you struggle to see where you are going in the dark take a torch the parking area is a bit uneven.

Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra concerts are outstanding live performances of classical music.There is a restaurant for dinner before the concert and drinks or tea at interval and afterwards.

Its a beautiful place. Amazing for big events

Spacious, great chairs, its the best place to have your event

Always watch the Jhb Philharmonic Orchestra here. Great venue for this purpose. Safe and secure. Easy access from major highways.

It took ages to get into the venue and even longer to get away after the concert. The organisers need to address this problem

Fantastic concert. Richard at his usual best and the soloists great!

The venue is lovely. Ample space for guests. Canteen available for refreshments and food. Mutiple seeting areas and balconies. Convenient parking and easy access and exit.

A place where happy memories are made. Beautiful music for all is often on offer at this lovely venue. It is a landmark of the city as its walls have seen a lot...

Regular performances of orchestral and choir music. Comfortable seating.

Great venue for concerts. The staff at the cafeteria are a bit lazy and rude though they need a better system with regards ordering and collecting food. But otherwise I lovely place

Canteen closed early. No easy access to refreshments through the evening

Good parking no problemo. An enjoyable afternoon. Even exit traffic got moving and people polite

The Linder is the home of the Johannesburg Philharmonic. It has excellent acoustics, and seating up close and personal if you choose. Lots of safe parking on the University campus

Beautiful auditorium. Perfect for graduations and theres sometimes an orchestra playing there too!

Easy parking, nice food in the cafe and good seating.

Excellent acoustics. It is the venue for many orchestral performances in Johannesburg

Music, opera, orchestras are amazing in this venue. The acoustics are amazing!

User friendly. Very spacious

Its a bit faded Frasers and run down. Parking is limited, and exiting the campus can take time after a big function

Parking is easily accessible, security is good and the queues move quickly once the auditorium event has let out

What an awesome experience. Also very good for a workout for overlager people

Very clean space, I highly recommend this space for events

Such awesome beautiful music is being played.......its movely for the classics to be kept going

Great sound in the theater for music. Also my grandfather was involved In building it so i have rather partisan positive feelings towards it. I used to go to all the NSO concerts there, and attend quite a few of Richard Cocks things.

Live orchestra shows and other performances. Good spacious, ventilated auditorium with good sound. Large parking area and a shop with snacks on sale.

Oooh Buskaid!! What a super fun and inspiring night. My favourite was at the end, when the kids played some contemporary music with their classical instruments and broke it down on stage. Stretch those borders till they snap!! The auditorium itself is awesome for concerts. Check one out.

We organized two events here. They are professional and the venue is quite good.

Great venue. World class. Lovely acoustics

The JPO is a wonderful night out. If you havent been, you are seriously missing out.

Lovely venue for local performances of Classical symphony music and opera by local musicians. Parking overflow is sufficient for when performances are fully booked. Refreshments are available at intermissions at Theos next door (not affiliated)

A must see Philharmonic orchestra

Attended a workshop here, its s beautiful auditorium, clean and well maintained

Excellent acoustics, so music performances here are superb from all seats! Leaving the parking is a nightmare and needs attention.

Such a nice stage for concerts. Love going to it for the Symphony Concerts and othet concerts.

Took 25 minutes to get through the gate. A big event and only one access gate was operational. Very frustrating.

Nice venue, the the best for DVD recording though

Loved the experience... JPO is amazing

Best place for Classical music. Good accoustics

The Auditorium is simple and basic in terms of comfort and structure, but the music of the Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra which filled the space, more than compensated for any lack of elegant design.

Its extremely beautiful inside, the lighting is great and the interior is design is just great. The space is also big.

Its big enough for the event we where hosting (graduation ceremony)

Very nice and what you would expect from a auditorium.... whether for speaches or dancing.

Lovely venue for classical and light music concerts, acoustic very fine. Ample and safe parking.

The classical concerts held here are awesome

The Linder is a superb concert hall, have loved every concert I have attended there. Now singing in a choir which performs there regularly and it is always a grand experience.

Took an hour to exit after a wonderful show. Major exit closed, nobody assisting or directing traffic.

Wonderfull experiece to see the play of Helpmekaar School

An outstanding performance of the Messiah and a spiritually enriching experience for Easter.

A haven where serious music lovers especially pensioners can enjoy the world class skills of our orchestras in an acoustic marvel

The other seats dont give a good comfortable feel to the front, but a great place for concerts

Amazing experience

Fantastic and Wonderful Concert most enjoyable.

Could be better than I expected. Dark places outside could be well lit

One of the best auditoriums in South Africa. Acoustics are good.

Classic auditorium. Always neat and clean.

An experience I never had... Thank you for hosting the Salvation Army

Very well decorated and has a resturant as well.

Iit was my baby girl graduation its a nice university

Majestic performance of Handels Messiah by the JHB festival orchestra and the JHB symphony choir hot off their high playing wirh Andrea Bocelli the previous night. Superb...

Good auditorium. No drinks after concert last 2 weeks. New catering.
