Exhibition Hall

The 16,500 square-foot exhibition hall hosts trade shows, banquets and receptions. The columned hall has space for 80 10'x10' booths and can accommodate up to 1,100 guests for seated events or 2,000 for receptions. A full-sized prep-warming kitchen and freight elevator complete this facility. It can be used in conjunction with the auditorium, lobby and mezzanine spaces or for stand-alone events.

Lobby and Mezzanine

Marble and terrazzo lobbies on two floors provide the perfect venue for receptions to seated galas. Both have beautiful views of downtown San Francisco, Grace Cathedral and a 60-foot high endo-mosaic window by renowned artist Emile Norman, which spans the entire room. These spaces also can be used in conjunction with the auditorium, exhibition hall or for stand-alone events.

Auditorium

Its excellent acoustics and intimate seating arrangement makes the 3,165-seat auditorium an excellent venue for corporate events, new product launches, shareholder meetings, graduations, concerts and lectures. The auditorium has been uniquely designed so that no seat is more than 21 rows away from the stage. It offers concert hall quality acoustics, with dual sound systems and an extensive array of lighting and audio-visual equipment.

What we love about this venue

Not just an auditorium space, Nob Hill Masonic makes it possible for corporate groups to have a trade show downstairs, then come up for a formal presentation, and end with a cocktail reception.
