The Palais des Congrès de Versailles stands in the town centre, close to the Château de Versailles. Renovated and fitted with new technology in 2020, it combines a large auditorium with modular rooms for conferences, congresses and corporate events in a heritage setting.
The venue offers over 3,200 m² of privatisable space, with a main amphitheatre (Richelieu) of 1,008 seats and modular rooms for 20 to 1,500 guests. The building also has sub-committee rooms, the Lulli studio for connected events and the Mazarin rotunda for exhibitions, cocktails and dinners. Total surface sits between 3,200 and 3,700 m².
The appeal is the setting: a congress in a dedicated centre, with the possibility of evening programmes in privatised royal venues of Versailles, organised through a DMC.
