HALL SET-UP
Spaces for Exhibitions & Markets
Chapel House features two halls that can be hired separately or together, depending on your event needs:
Harmony Hall
An open and versatile space ideal for larger exhibitions, markets, fairs, and charity sales where multiple stalls, displays or visitor pathways are required. The Great Hall’s size and layout make it suitable for circular flows, linear stalls and large installation.
Serenity Suite
Using Both Together
The Great Hall and the Studio Hall are connected by internal doors and can be opened into one extended venue. This allows organisers to plan multi-zone layouts, separate exhibition streams or dedicated charity sale areas alongside quiet or resting areas.
When both halls are in use, event organisers benefit from:
● Access to a large kitchen (via the Studio Hall), helpful for concession stands or hospitality areas
● A separate serving area (via the Great Hall)
● Two sets of toilets, supporting attendee comfort
● All other standard in-house facilities
