Revolution Hall is a music venue in the Buckman neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. [1] [2] It is located within the former Washington High School, and was originally constructed as the school's auditorium. [3] [4] The auditorium was in use from the school's opening in 1924 to its closure in 1981, and was unused until February 2015. As part of a larger redevelopment that saw the school converted into office and retail space, the auditorium was renovated into a music venue. During construction, two bars and a roof deck were added, but the original wooden seats were preserved. [3]
The venue officially opened on April 17, 2015, with a concert by Neko Case. [5]
Revolution Hall won in the "Best Patio" category, and earned second place in the "Best Music Venue" category, of Willamette Week's "Best of Portland Readers' Poll 2020". [6]
