Space essentials, on every level
With our search tool, you can roam the Palais’ floors and event spaces in their actual settings and from all angles (access to outside, stairs, elevators, metro station, washrooms, handling services, etc.). You can also consult the rooms’ spec sheets (sizes, heights, square footages and capacities) and watch videos recorded during events to experience the atmosphere.

Ultramodern and sophisticated, our event spaces form the core of an internationally acclaimed architectural design whose centrepiece is abundant natural light. The beauty and attraction of the venue make the Palais more than just a place for receiving guests.
