About Colchester Town Hall
Hidden in the historical town of Colchester are some remarkable venues and spaces, which as the Colchester Events company, we are privileged to offer you the choice and flexibility across them all, creating the perfect backdrop for your special day.
Situated in the heart of the town centre with excellent transport links, Colchester Town Hall is the perfect venue rich with heritage for any special occasion, and you are guaranteed to make a grand red-carpet entrance from the moment you set foot inside.
The Moot Hall is the largest function room, resplendent with baroque architectural features including a colourful ornate ceiling and majestic columns which can also be lit up at night to match you colour theme. It also has an organ which you can hire to play during your ceremony.
One of the most distinctive rooms in the Town Hall is the circular Council Chamber with wooden pew like seating, echoing the feel of a church. It is adorned with fine paintings, murals, stained glass windows and a glorious painted dome ceiling.
The lavish Grand Jury Room opens onto the West Committee Room, both of which are decorated with original oil paintings, spherical chandeliers, and Colchester’s Mayoral Regalia. It can be combined with the Mayor’s Parlour to accommodate an extra 10 guests, plus exclusive access to the Balcony towering above Colchester High Street.
All of our function rooms are fully accessible, and disabled access to the Town Hall is via a lift from the St Runwald Street entrance. Our disabled facilities include toilets, induction loops in all public rooms, level access into function rooms and wide doorways.
