About The Main Hall (New..)
300 Banquet
742 Theatre
The moment you step into The Main Hall at Oxford Town Hall, that spectacular domed ceiling draws your eyes upward, its intricate Victorian patterns spiralling above the grand space where we've hosted everything from 300-guest wedding receptions to packed corporate presentations. The Father Willis organ commands attention from its position overlooking the polished wooden floors, while ornate balconies curve around the walls, their detailed plasterwork catching the natural light that streams through our large windows during daytime celebrations. We've configured this space countless ways over the years, from intimate dinner dances with round tables dotting the floor to theatre-style setups accommodating 742 guests for product launches and award ceremonies. The acoustics, shaped by those soaring 19th-century proportions, work brilliantly whether you're planning live music, speeches, or a DJ until late. Our PA system handles it all, and yes, the WiFi keeps up even when hundreds of phones are sharing photos simultaneously. Christmas parties here feel properly festive, birthday celebrations take on a sense of occasion, and engagement parties benefit from that romantic atmosphere created by warm ambient lighting against historical architecture. We've seen couples exchange vows beneath the dome, charities raise significant funds with gala dinners, and companies transform their annual gatherings into genuinely memorable experiences. The flexibility extends beyond just furniture arrangements. Bring your preferred caterers to use our professional kitchen facilities, or work with our recommended suppliers who know exactly how to make the most of the space. Our events team helps coordinate everything from load-in logistics to lighting design that highlights those architectural details. Being right in Oxford's centre means your guests can stroll from the railway station in minutes, explore the city before or after your event, and find plenty of nearby accommodation options.
