Spanish Hall
The Spanish Hall, measuring 47 × 24 m with a height of 13 m, is the largest and most prestigious space at Prague Castle, with an area of over 1,100 m². In a theatre-style arrangement, it accommodates up to 700 guests, while a formal reception or gala dinner seats approximately 500. The interior is distinguished by elaborate stucco decoration, soaring vaulted ceilings and natural daylight flooding in through a long row of windows.
From an AV perspective, all installations must be approached with great sensitivity in accordance with heritage and architectural restrictions. Due to the glazed longitudinal wall, LED screens are preferred over projection, as they provide sufficient brightness, contrast and content legibility even in daylight conditions. Lighting is a combination of historic chandeliers and LED fixtures set exclusively to neutral, warm-to-white tones. The placement of all lighting respects the character of the hall. Light towers are dressed in beige covers and all other technical equipment is discreetly integrated so as not to disturb the historic atmosphere.
The hall is located in the north wing of the New Royal Palace and directly adjoins both the Rudolf Gallery and the Rothmayer Hall, allowing technical and operational interconnection of the spaces for larger events, provision of AV back-of-house facilities and efficient guest flow management.
Rudolf Gallery
The Rudolf Gallery ranks among the most magnificent historic spaces at Prague Castle. It was built at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries during the reign of Emperor Rudolf II and originally served as a representative hall of the imperial court. Today it is a sought-after venue for formal receptions, concerts, conferences and cultural events with an exceptional atmosphere.
With an area of approximately 470 m², the gallery accommodates up to 350 guests in a theatre-style arrangement and around 250 persons for a reception or banquet layout. The space is defined by its long rectangular floor plan, tall windows overlooking the Royal Garden and elaborate stucco decoration complemented by restored paintings. As in all representative halls at Prague Castle, lighting is restricted to neutral, warm-to-white tones and coloured lighting is not permitted. For visual presentations, LED screens are recommended given the restricted access to the space and the need for sensitive handling of technical equipment.
Thanks to the gallery's location in the north wing of the New Royal Palace and its immediate proximity to the Spanish Hall, the two spaces can be combined, creating a flexible setting for large-scale social events with tailored AV support.
Ball Game Hall
The Ball Game Hall at Prague Castle is one of the most beautiful Renaissance spaces in the Czech Republic. It was built between 1567 and 1569 to designs by architects Bonifác Wohlmut and Ulrico Aostalli as a pavilion for royal festivities and ball games. Today it serves as a prestigious venue for gala dinners, concerts, fashion shows and formal receptions.
With an area of approximately 480 m², the space accommodates up to 350 guests in a theatre-style arrangement and around 250 persons for a reception or gala dinner. Thanks to its dimensions of 47 × 12 m and a height of over 10 metres, it has an exceptionally airy feel and offers the possibility of creative scenographic solutions as well as technical installations for more demanding events. The main entrance leads from the St. George's Garden, and the space is readily accessible for technical and catering logistics subject to coordination with the Prague Castle Administration.
Rothmayer Hall
The Rothmayer Hall is located in the New Royal Palace at Prague Castle and serves as the entrance space to the Spanish Hall. With an area of approximately 250 m², the hall accommodates up to 200 guests in a theatre-style arrangement and around 150 persons for a banquet or reception layout. It ranks among the most elegant representative spaces at the Castle, featuring high ceilings, wood panelling and large windows overlooking the courtyard. It is ideal for receptions, cocktail receptions, conferences, formal lunches and smaller concerts, and is most commonly used in combination with other hired spaces. As in all other halls at Prague Castle, lighting is restricted to neutral, warm-to-white tones, requiring careful calibration of both LED and traditional fixtures to maintain a consistent and distinguished visual identity.
