The vaulted ceiling features diamond panels, rosette and garlands, and the walls are lined with framed portraits of people connected to Trinity throughout its long history, including Queen Elizabeth I, who founded the university in 1592. And many of the features inside the hall predate the building itself. The recently restored gilded organ case was made in 1684 and the chandelier at the southern end once hung in the Irish House of Commons.
With a capacity of up to 400 people, whether as a seated theatre space, or standing reception, along with an inbuilt PA system for speeches, your guests will have a truly authentic experience in one of the most historic buildings on our campus.
