Now, a lot of "culture halls" are still being constructed and planed in cities. Although there is some confidence that a newly-established culture hall would influence the situation of existing culture halls in the same city, there are few studies and little knowledge about this. The purpose of this paper is to grasp the change of the situation of culture hall utilization after a newly-established culture hall's opening. Sendai city was selected as a survey field. The results are summarized as follow; Since the newly-established concert hall opened, a large number of classical music concerts held in the city moved from existing multipurpose halls to the newly-established concert hall. Almost all of them were promoted by lesson classes or schools. As a result, some multipurpose halls changed their character to "lecture halls".
