About Wrecking Ball Arts Centre

Wrecking Ball Arts Centre is a live music venue situated in the heart of Hull, and home to Wrecking Ball Music and Books.

Our Story

Founded in 2021, Wrecking Ball Arts Centre was born from a shared passion for live music and the Hull community. Owners Gary Marks and Shane Rhodes each brought over 20 years of experience promoting shows across the Hull area before joining forces to create something truly special — a venue that artists love to play and audiences love to visit.

Since opening, Wrecking Ball has built an excellent reputation with both artists and customers alike. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a regular face, we look forward to welcoming you.
