A performance at Stage@TheDock

Stage at the Dock

Stage@TheDock is an open-air amphitheatre in the former central dry dock, next to the river that gives the city its name.

Events will take place inside a weatherproof marquee at stage level, accessible by a lift.

Stage@TheDock will host play readings, keynote speeches, our lunchtime networking sessions and our meet the writer panels. 

Toilets are located at Nibble and Bert’s, next to Stage@TheDock, which will be available to use at any time, including during the events.

A box office, staffed by Hull Truck Theatre, is open throughout the festival at Stage@TheDock, where you can buy tickets or get help with your bookings.
