About Main Hall
1000 Standing / Reception
Stepping through the grand entrance into our Main Hall, guests immediately understand why this space has remained Cheltenham's most prestigious event venue for over a century. Those towering Corinthian columns create natural frames for photographs, while the elaborate coved ceiling soars 53 feet above, its intricate plasterwork catching the light from our crystal chandeliers. We've measured every inch of this remarkable space, 92 feet by 52 feet of versatile grandeur that transforms effortlessly for each celebration. Our sprung dance floor has seen countless wedding first dances, charity galas spinning late into the night, and birthday parties where three generations move together to live bands on stage. The theatrical balconies add drama to any event, whether guests are watching speeches from above or you're using them for musicians during drinks receptions. For weddings and parties, we configure the hall to your exact needs. Reception drinks for 1,000 guests flow easily through the space, while seated dinners for 450 create a more intimate atmosphere despite the hall's impressive scale. The cabaret layout for 350 works particularly well for anniversary celebrations where guests want to mingle between courses. Our audio-visual setup, complete with projector and professional sound system, means speeches reach every corner clearly, and we can display photo montages during your celebration. Natural light streams through the tall windows during afternoon receptions, gradually giving way to atmospheric evening lighting that highlights the architectural details. The proximity to Imperial Square means summer parties often see guests wandering onto the manicured lawns for photographs or evening air. Our in-house catering team crafts menus specifically for your event, handling everything from canapé receptions to formal four-course dinners, with every dietary requirement carefully accommodated. The Main Hall transforms your vision into reality, whether that's an elegant wedding breakfast or an energetic birthday celebration.
