About BJ Haan Auditorium at Dordt College
The BJ Haan Auditorium sits at the heart of Dordt University, within the Music Building in Sioux Center, Iowa. With a seating capacity of approximately 1,500, this on-campus performance venue hosts commencements, concerts, and events like the 4th Ave Jazz Concert and Northwest Iowa Symphony Orchestra performances. The space features a Casavant pipe organ (3 manuals, 57 ranks) and two grand pianos, making it a versatile setting for a wide range of musical events. As the campus expands, the auditorium is being integrated into a new Performing Arts Center (PAC), with a recital hall planned to accommodate around 150–250 seats depending on configuration.
Whether you’re attending a graduation ceremony, a symphonic performance, or a classroom recital, BJ Haan Auditorium offers a welcoming Northwest Iowa venue with rich musical heritage.
