About this space

The North & South Galleries are adjoining event spaces in the Trades Hall of Glasgow, offering two connected gallery rooms that can be configured to suit presentation or meeting layouts.

Design: The interior presents pale painted walls, decorative cornicing and neutral carpeting for a simple, traditional gallery appearance. The room is rectangular with a modest ceiling height and framed wall art that maintains an understated finish.

Features: The rooms have a front projection screen and an integrated PA system, plus venue Wi‑Fi and air conditioning. The space is supplied with stackable chairs and a presentation table at the front. Wheelchair access is provided and the venue permits own music.

Ideal for: Corporate and community organisers will find the space suitable for presentation‑focused, seated meetings and talks that require straightforward AV support.

What guests say: The space is atmospheric and photogenic. The seating layout is on a single level, which can restrict sightlines for theatre‑style events, and the fixed lighting is relatively bright compared with low‑light performances.
