Autumn Sound Experience at Templemore Baths
An Immersive Heritage Space Sound Experience
A sound experience held within the Heritage Space at Templemore Baths, guided by Tessa Ann.
Limited capacity allows for a more spacious and immersive experience within this distinctive architectural environment.
As the season begins to shift, this experience offers an opportunity to step away from the pace of everyday life and into a quieter and more reflective space, where sound, atmosphere and architecture come together within one of Belfast’s most unique heritage settings.
Part of The Place to BE series, this experience explores the relationship between sound, resonance and environment, where the scale, surfaces and acoustics of the building shape how sound is experienced throughout the space.
Taking place as autumn begins to emerge, this experience offers a gentle invitation to pause, settle and experience Templemore Baths in a slower and more atmospheric way.

Event Overview
The Experience
Held within the beautifully restored Heritage Space at Templemore Baths, this immersive sound experience unfolds within a large architectural environment with distinctive acoustics and atmosphere.
Sound is created and delivered live using voice, singing bowls and subtle percussion, responding to the natural resonance of the building.
Unlike smaller or more contained environments, sound here travels across surfaces and open space, creating a layered and spacious listening experience.
With minimal spoken guidance, the focus remains on direct experience. Participants are invited to settle comfortably and engage in their own way, allowing sound and space to unfold together naturally.
As the experience progresses, there is space for stillness, reflection and sensory rest within the atmosphere of the building.
Designed to support calm and spaciousness, this experience offers an opportunity to experience Templemore Baths in a slower and more immersive way.
