Elliott Hall can accommodate up to 850 people for a seated dinner, and up to 1,500 for standing reception or event. Combine with the Pier 66 exterior 'apron,' and the International Promenade (9,960 square feet), to provide great flow for a unique Seattle reception site that can accommodate 1,100 guests, food booths, a large music stage, and the support areas required to operate the event.
The International Promenade is nearly 10,000 square feet and can accommodate up to 500 seated guests or up to 900 guests for a reception-style event. The room is surrounded by windows and skylights and also fitted with track lighting for a more intimate feeling.
