The Cane Growers' Hall is a theatre and college auditorium on the M.L. Sultan Campus of the Durban University of Technology (DUT). It was originally known as the Indian Cane Growers' Hall and was built in 1959 for the M.L. Sultan Technical College, Durban, with a sponsorship from the Natal Indian Cane Growers' Association (founded in 1936).

Today it serves as an auditorium for the university and a performance space by the DUT Department of Drama and Production Studies.

Among the many plays and theatrical events put on there over the years have been At the Edge (Govender), A Clockwork Orange (Burgess)
