Dine with us in our Regency Café before enjoying your event, or relax with a refreshing drink in our Imperial Garden Bar.

Built at the turn of twentieth century to accommodate the many balls and concerts of the town’s social calendar, Cheltenham Town Hall was, quite literally, made for celebrations. Until the year 1900, the role had been filled by the old Assembly Rooms in the High Street. Its demolition to make way for a bank prompted the Council to build a new, and much larger Hall, on a new site.

The total cost of the building, including its marbled Corinthian style columns, intricately decorated coved ceiling, dance-friendly sprung floor, beautiful balconies, internal decoration and fixtures and fittings was around £45,000! Standing proudly overlooking the immaculately manicured Imperial Gardens, Cheltenham Town Hall comprises of a grand Main Hall, varying sized dining and drawing rooms and offices.

The Drawing Room is a delightfully sunny room, accommodating up to 150 guests, perfect for dinners, recitals and networking events.

    Huge thank you to the lovely women working on the reservations table on Wednesday evening for the rock orchestra. Understanding kind and thoughtful they made the night so much better thank you! The stairs are steep and there isn't a lift, however there are good rails both sides and it's big enough for people to walk around you. Thanks also to the lovely, tall, female usher to kindly gave me a taxi number. Highly recommend this venue and wonderful staff!

    First time in the Town hall and it did not disappoint. It is a beautiful venue. Only negative was my seat 😞 I could only see half of the stage due to being sat next to one of the (magnificent) marble pillars.

    Went to see the rock orchestra, they were absolutely amazing as usual. But last time we had no seats and got to stand which was fab. But tonight we had to sit, the seats are too close together and uncomfortable, the man next to me took up my seat space and I felt uncomfortable. I thought it was better without seats but the rock orchestra ar outstanding
