A live music event needs open floor space more than fixed seating, and enough capacity that the room doesn’t feel half-empty or overcrowded. The Grand Ballroom’s cocktail and general admission capacity, extending to 1,700 guests combined with the Magnolia Room, gives a concert or live event real scale, with in-house lighting and sound as a working foundation for an external production supplier to build on. With no music curfew and a licence until 1am, the set list isn’t cut short by the venue.
