TivoliVredenburg (Muziekpaleis Utrecht) combines the former Muziekcentrum Vredenburg (MCV), the poppodium Tivoli and the Foundation Jazz Utrecht (SJU). For that purpose, the former Muziekcentrum Vredenburg has been extended with 4 new music halls. Above the new "Pop"hall, the Crossover hall and the Jazz hall have been situated. The new (round) chamber music hall has been built cantilivering above the existing Symphony hall. Because of the large spans necessary for the halls, the structure has been made in steel. The spine of the building are two connected concrete cores, which in turn support the steel structure. The foyers, restaurants and 'squares' are situated between the halls as 'public' area.
