The Bronisław Huberman Philharmonic of Częstochowa is located in the city centre on Wilson Street, in the building erected between 1955 and 1965 on foundations of New Synagogue, which had been burnt down on 25 December 1939. The Philharmonic has at its disposal two concert halls and one rehearsal hall. The large concert hall can accommodate 825 people, whilst the small hall has 156 seats.

The concert hall of the Philharmonic of Częstochowa is a place where concerts of symphonic orchestra take place. The building itself is younger than the history of symphonic concerts in Częstochowa, as the first concert took place in March 1945. The mixed choir has been functioning since the Philharmonic was set up. The choir was professionalized in September 2012 and it was named The Częstochowa Philharmonic Choir "Collegium Cantorum".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.collegiumcantorum.com/en/ |title=Collegium Cantorum Excellence comes from experience |publisher=Collegiumcantorum.com |access-date=2014-07-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140808140419/http://www.collegiumcantorum.com/en/ |archive-date=2014-08-08 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

The Philharmonic is also a co-organiser and a co-performer of operas, operettas and ballets. It is also a place where various exhibitions take place. The Philharmonic annually organises Bronisław Huberman International Violin Festival, Reszek Vocal Competition, Festival of Traditional Jazz "Hot Jazz Spring". The Philharmonic also engages in organising the "[[Night of Culture]]", the [[International Festival of Sacral Music "Gaude Mater"]] and the Bach Family Music Festival.

Music education is also an important part of the Philharmonic's activity. Its educational functions are carried out through a series of concerts such as "Music for children", "FEEL harmony - feel the climate!" and "Sunday Mornings with Philharmonic". In 2010, the building of The Philharmonic of Cżęstochowa was refurbished through the financial support from the European Fund of Regional Development.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.filharmonia.com.pl/index.php?Lang=en|title=Bronislaw Huberman Czestochowa Philharmonic Hall|website=www.filharmonia.com.pl|access-date=15 March 2018}}</ref>
