Le Méridien Dubai Hotel and Conference Centre celebrated the inauguration of the Great Ballroom, a 2,467-sq-m pillar-less ballroom that can accommodate 1,750 guests, making it one of Dubai’s tallest and most spacious ballroom venues.

The new Great Ballroom is located on ground level and the entrance is directly connected to the main road and close to the airport, offering convenience to guests. The Great Ballroom can be divided into three sections each equipped with a walk-in live kitchen featuring built in hot plate, tandoor, contemporary oven and wok stations that can also be partitioned.

Conceived to create illusions of vibrant theatrical lighting, the high 9.5-m ceiling features different settings of LED colour lights. Skyhooks on the ceiling with power connections and large doors provides for creative representation to all kinds of events, including launches of large products like cars. Along with two large foyer areas that can accommodate more than 1,000 guests, the Great Ballroom features two built-in LED screens to display and project images at every corner of the ballroom, and five display built-in electronic screens in the foyer areas.

The launch event unfurled itself in an evening of splendor, surprise giveaways and enthralling performances, hosted by Dubai’s most adored radio personalities from Virgin Radio – the trios- Kris Fade, Priti Malik and Big Rossi

“We’re very excited about our all-new Great Ballroom which is rich in detail, and reflects the sign of times to come in the UAE, a fast growing leading Mice destination globally”, said complex general manager Shaun Parsons. “It is wonderful that we have been able to combine the grandeur Dubai is known for around the world with this special venue that truly reflects our iconic position in the industry”. – TradeArabia News Service
