The most beautiful room of its size in the city of Charleston, the Grand Ballroom is fashionably carpeted and walled in beige wainscoting with a refined Wedgewood blue plaster. It is lit by well-placed recessed down-lighting and decorative sconces that tastefully accommodate all events. The Grand Ballroom has a coffered ceiling with crown molding, lighting rigging, and a high-performance acoustically engineered tile to better accommodate the most demanding and sophisticated of events. Large widows placed high in the room face Calhoun Street. Decorative fabric-covered acoustic dividing walls can be deployed to make the Grand Ballroom into three smaller ballrooms or meeting rooms, Grand I, II, and III. Lighting, floors, and ceiling have been thoughtfully planned so each of the three rooms looks grand and complete on its own. Each ball-room is accessed individually without disruption to the others. Each room is individually connected to pre-function space, restrooms, and a service corridor to back-of-the-house facilities.

Four intimate Salons grace the second level of the Galleria Lobby. Perfectly designed for intimate meetings, cocktails, or small receptions, independently or in conjunction with larger events. The four salons are connected by a continuous and spacious corridor that can be used as pre-function or gathering space. The corridor also holds dedicated restrooms. Each salon is independently accessed. Salon I and II are equipped with two complimentary 70" flat screens with HDMI hookups. Each include an airwall to divide the room into two smaller rooms. Salon I: 926 sq ft, can accommodate 60 guests at banquet rounds, 80 guests in theater seating, and 45 in classroom style. Salon II: 794 sq ft, can accommodate 60 guests at banquet rounds, 70 guests in theater seating, and 36 in classroom style. U-shaped and hollow square seating can also be accommodated. Salon III and IV include one 70" flat screen. Both are 216 sq ft and best accommodates up to 11 guests around one conference table.

With the sweep and openness of a city street that, indeed, once was located here, the Galleria connects the north and south sides of the Charleston Gaillard Center through a soaring two-story lobby.
