551 JANE STANFORD WAY, STANFORD

Memorial Hall (including Memorial Auditorium) is located at 551 Jane Stanford Way. It is located between Lathrop Library and the Landau Economics Building.

Memorial Hall is most commonly referred to as "MemAud". Memorial Hall includes Memorial Auditorium, a large auditorium used for major and/or large-scale events, and Pigott Theater, a smaller venue for drama productions and classes. Prosser Studio Theater, used for student productions, is located on the 2nd floor. KZSU, Stanford's FM radio station broadcasting across the Bay Area on 90.1 FM, is located in the basement. Currently, there is no elevator in Memorial Hall, so wheelchair access is limited to the 1st floor only. There is no wheelchair access to Prosser Studio Theater or KZSU. If you need to access programs or activities in these spaces, please contact disability.access@stanford.edu or call (650) 725-0326.

The main entrance to Memorial Hall is equipped with a power-operated door and accessible via a wheelchair ramp to the left of the stairs. Upon entering Memorial Hall, the entrance to Memorial Auditorium is directly ahead. Wheelchair seating is located near the front on either side of the auditorium. In addition, a side entrance (west side of the building via the courtyard from Jane Stanford Way) of Memorial Hall provides a step-free route to the front-of-house seating inside MemAud. Pigott Theater is accessible via the side entrance (equipped with a power-operated door) from Jane Stanford Way through the courtyard on the west side of the building. A ramp is also located on the west side of the building, providing an accessible route from the disabled parking on Memorial Way by following the pathway between Lathrop and MemAud and then up the ramp. Wheelchair seating is located inside the theater from the side entrance. The wheelchair accessible route to the stage areas of MemAud and Pigott Theater are via a wheelchair ramp at the back of Memorial Hall and through the back entrance (equipped with a power-operated door). Once inside the back entrance, the stage areas are located down the hall, to the left. Dressing rooms and office space are also located along this hallway.  The only wheelchair accessible route to the Green Room is through the back entrance of Memorial Hall, or from Mem Aud stage or Pigott stage.

There are two wheelchair accessible, single-occupancy, all-gender restrooms located inside the main entrance of Memorial Hall, on the left side. A wheelchair accessible, multi-occupancy men's restroom is located via the side exterior courtyard entrance on the east side of the building. A wheelchair accessible, multi-occupancy women's restroom is located on the west side of the building via the side exterior courtyard entrance. There is also a wheelchair accessible, single-occupancy, all-gender restroom and shower changing facility at the back of Memorial Hall. Once inside the back entrance, it is located down the hallway on the right (only operational during non-performance or class times, or during events at Pigott Theater and MemAud for back of house only). During Pigott Theater performances, ushers can assist with locating the closest wheelchair accessible restroom.

The closest disability parking is located along Memorial Way. Additional disabled parking is located along Galvez Street or in Lot 87, adjacent to Burnham Pavilion. The closest Marguerite shuttle stops are located along Jane Stanford Way and Galvez Street. Please note there is no drop-off in front of Memorial Hall, as Jane Stanford Way does not have vehicular access.
