For your events
The new Dinosaur Gallery is a unique location for original events. A cocktail party or dinner held in this magnificently restored hall, with its impressive dinosaur skeletons, is sure to give your guests an unforgettable evening.
Just spending time among "the nation’s" iguanodons from Bernissart, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops, and the rest of earth’s huge creatures will give your event a magical atmosphere. The Gallery takes sitting diners only, and has space for a maximum 200 people.
You can organise a reception or walking dinner on the mezzanine floor of the Dinosaur Gallery, which offers a fantastic view of the hall. You can also combine this with the VIP room, a modern-looking lounge room overlooking the Gallery.
