| Town Hall, Oxford |
One of the City's attractive landmarks, the building continues to play a key part in the management, social and cultural life of this thriving historic city.
Oxford Town Hall is one of the predominant establishments for venue hire in Oxfordshire, with rooms available for social functions and corporate or community events such as concerts, conferences, job fairs, public meetings, birthday receptions, society balls, dinner dances and trade fairs. Also a popular venue for weddings, the Town Hall has been licensed for civic marriage ceremonies for a number of years.
With versatile space and facilities to accommodate from 12 up to 742 people, the Town Hall and its staff can ensure that your event will be a memorable success.
Recent additions are the Gallery - available for art displays, exhibitions, product launches and small trade fairs - and the Gallery Cafe.
You can find more information on venue hire, weddings, the Gallery, the Gallery Cafe and other points of interest about the Town Hall via the links to the left of this page.
The Town Hall is situated in the centre of the City a short walk from Gloucester Green bus station and Oxford Railway Station. Easy access to the M40 and regular rail and bus links to the rest of the country make Oxford Town Hall an ideal venue for hall hirers and patrons from all around the UK. The five City Park and Ride services offer a convenient way for motorists to avoid city centre parking. For those wishing to park in the centre we recommend the Westgate Car Park.
