This hall was completed with funds donated by the late Masakazu Shiiki
(founder of Sanyo Shinpan Finance Co., Ltd., subsequently absorbed into
SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd.) to commemorate Kyushu University’s
centenary. It consists of the Concert Hall with a seating capacity of
approximately 3,000, a large open space called the Galleria, and
administrative facilities. The Shiiki Hall has become a landmark of this
university.
It stands in the center of the Ito Campus of Kyushu University. It is
circular in shape with a diameter of 100m and consists of a hall and an
administration building. It was designed as a place for students to
gather together, including for entrance ceremonies and degree conferment
ceremonies. Mr. Shiiki Masakazu, the founder of Sanyo Shinpan,
sympathized with Kyushu University's philosophy of becoming a
world-class educational and research center of the highest standard, and
donated the building to the university on the occasion of its 100th
anniversary in 2011.
