Salle Gaveau can host conventions, general assemblies, product launches, graduation ceremonies, cocktail receptions and evening events for up to 900 people in its auditorium, with four salons for smaller formats, at 45-47 rue La Boétie in the 8th arrondissement of Paris. It is about 200 meters from the Champs-Élysées.
Seminars and company events
The hall presents its spaces as suited to conventions, general assemblies, product launches, graduations, cocktails and festive evenings. Rooms can be hired individually or the whole building can be taken. The venue lists tailored services and modular layouts.
The auditorium holds 900 seats across three levels and is a listed historic monument. Configurations are modular from 200 to 900 people, and the stage is modular with 130 square meters. It suits a plenary for a large company, a shareholders' meeting or a conference with an audience, and the acoustics are presented as exceptional.
For smaller sessions, the Salon Ravel on the fifth floor offers 220 square meters under a glass roof with natural light, for 200 people in cocktail or plenary layout. The Salon Chantal, of 130 square meters, adjoins it and can be combined with it. The Salon Husson, of 40 square meters, takes up to 30 people and is suggested for offices, a VIP space, an interview room or a small plenary for seminars and training.
