Blue Hall

The Blue Hall stands 22 meters high with red brick walls, displaying a monumental staircase and spanning 1,500 square meters of floor space.

The hall received its name from the original 1923 design plan to paint the walls blue, yet architect Ragnar Östberg kept the red brick surface instead.

Every December 10th, the Nobel Banquet takes place in this hall, bringing together 1,200 guests including the Swedish royal family and Nobel laureates.

The space accommodates different seating arrangements, from 480 guests at round tables to 1,200 people with rectangular table configurations.

The hall houses Scandinavia's second largest pipe organ, containing 10,000 pipes and maintained exclusively by certified organists.
