It’ll soon be a hall of silence.

The storied Music Hall of Williamsburg will be booted from the North Sixth Street venue it’s called home for two decades in 2026, The Post has confirmed.

The popular hall will only have one more year of events and concerts before it’s ushered out by the building’s new landlords, according to an internal memo from the venue’s promoter, Bowery Presents.

“After nearly two decades, The Bowery Presents has been notified by the owners of 66 North 6th Street that our lease for Music Hall of Williamsburg will not be renewed, and our time in the building will come to an end at the conclusion of 2026,” co-partners Jim Glancy and John Moore wrote.

“We will continue to produce shows at Music Hall throughout next year, making each moment count for rising talent and returning stars, ensuring the legacy of this venue and its impact on both the neighborhood and music overall is secured in history.”

The memo, which was obtained by Variety and confirmed by The Post, did not reveal why the hall’s lease was being terminated, but a spokesperson for Asana Partners revealed the building was changing hands.

“Asana Partners sold this property on December 11,” Julie C. Ducworth, a spokesperson for the real estate investment firm, told The Post.

Property records show that back in October, Asana Partners fulfilled the $26.5 million mortgage for the 66 North Sixth St. property and its neighboring storefront, both of which the real estate group picked up in 2019.

Whether the venue will relocate or shutter forever is not yet known — but Glancy and Moore promised in their memo that the music would continue unimpeded for the next 12 months.

“While we cannot speak to the future of 66 North 6th Street, The Bowery Presents is grateful for our time there, our staff that helps operate the venue night-after-night, and our collective commitment as a company to artist development,” the duo wrote.

“And as always, our passion for identifying new and exciting places for artists and fans to experience the transcendental power of live music will continue, as it has since we first crossed the bridge two decades ago,” the statement added.

“Music Hall of Williamsburg is a special place to all of us at Bowery. Let’s make our final year on North 6th Street one to remember.”

The 650-capacity venue has bookings into May, including acts from indie singer Skullcrusher and American Idol alum Natalie Jane.

The hall has hosted major artists throughout its tenure, including Harry Styles, Mumford and Sons, and The Weeknd. Last year, Coldplay chose the intimate venue to celebrate their 10th studio album “Moon Music.”

The Music Hall opened in 2007, becoming one of the first venues in the rapidly transforming Brooklyn nabe.

Its impending closure comes on the heels of the much more dramatic shuttering of the Brooklyn Mirage.

The massive Gowanus venue filed for demolition permits in October, following an embarrassing failure to wrap up construction in time for its packed summer concert series.
