banquet hall
Grand dining room
A banquet hall is a large room designed to host formal dinners, receptions, weddings, and similar gatherings.
Hotels, convention centers, and dedicated event venues maintain banquet halls that can seat dozens to hundreds of guests: We rented a banquet hall for the wedding reception.
The term emphasizes the space's capacity for elaborate seated meals rather than general assembly.
