The venue is fine and well located, but the sounds for live music is very bad. Big stairs behind the stairs gives it a very cool look.

Description
In the beating heart of Brussels, La Madeleine is making a show-stopping comeback! With a flexible capacity of 400-1400 seats, it can host all kinds of shows from Pop/Rock to easy-listening, from the French Chanson to international Jazz, as well as Stand Up & Comedy… Its charm, architecture, acoustics and warm welcome make it one of a kind! There is no doubt that La Madeleine has a great many endearing features, including its unique design, with its double flight of metal staircases surrounding a small stage, and a long corridor running all around the room. Designed to be modular, the venue allows an eclectic concert programme covering a range of musical styles, music hall shows, stand-up, etc. But it can also put on shows for several weeks, in the heart of the capital, giving a further boost to Brussels’ cultural credentials and appeal, and meeting a demand from the professionals for a venue of this capacity. This quirky hall with its long history is currently pursuing a substantial and ambitious project of its own that sets out to further develop the events programme and the attractiveness of the city centre.

First time to this venue to see Bill Bailey (who was brilliant), but less impressed with the venue. Seating was just loose chairs in rows with hard to find labels. I suppose to allow the floor to be cleared easily, but did not feel luxurious. The bar service was poorly arranged and in our group people queued on two seperate occasions and did not get a drink after 10 or 15 minutes. Toilet facilities were good for the men, but long queues for the ladies, again due to the nature of a show with an interval. On the plus side the bar takes cash and bank cards.

Bill Bailey was great, the concert hall was so so. It's a smallish venue designed I guess for music concerts. They were slow to open the doors at the beginning so needless queue formed. The bar was efficient so we did manage to get drinks just before it started. The chairs we sat on were cheap and nasty. At the end we all had to file out the one small exit which was unpleasant. I imagine it could be done better.

Nice place, but they should have more space for the wardrobe.
