Eldo L. Hendricks Hall

Hendricks Hall is a landmark performance and assembly venue on the University of Central Missouri campus in Warrensburg. Set within the Administration Building, it offers an established auditorium setting for organisers who need a formal stage environment and substantial audience capacity for presentations, performances and ceremonial occasions.

The hall is especially well suited to concerts, music festivals, dance recitals, lectures, guest-speaker programmes, academic celebrations, awards ceremonies and community gatherings. Its traditional auditorium layout creates a focused guest experience, with the stage naturally becoming the centre of attention for speakers, ensembles and performers. The venue has a long connection with cultural and educational programming, making it a strong option where atmosphere, visibility and a sense of occasion matter.

Events are supported through the University of Central Missouri’s Meeting and Conference Services team, which assists both campus groups and external clients with planning and reservations. Organisers can also access event technology support across campus. Hendricks Hall has sound-board provision and can accommodate microphones and connected audio for presentations and performances, with technical assistance required for the hall’s sound system.

For larger programmes, Hendricks Hall can form part of a wider campus event plan. The university offers additional meeting, dining and event facilities, allowing conferences, receptions, rehearsals and related sessions to be coordinated in nearby spaces. This makes the venue particularly practical for organisers planning a performance-led event, a professional conference programme or a special gathering that benefits from an auditorium setting and coordinated campus services.
