The Halls, Norwich
St. Andrew's Hall at The Halls in Norwich, UK is a stunning event venue with a high-beamed ceiling, stained glass windows, limestone columns, and polished maple floor. Originally the nave of the friary, it was completed in 1449, reflecting the friars' rule of simplicity. The hall has been used for royal banquets, classical music concerts, and international table tennis tournaments. It is also a popular choice for banquets, conferences, fairs, and exhibitions. The impressive auditorium features choir galleries, an extendable stage, and a Victorian concert organ.
