The biggest event space is the film hall with more than 700 seats in the stalls on the ground floor and approx. 500 seats (incl. box places) at the balcony on the upper floor. Here, you may find a capacity of max. 1,250 people in chair rows. Of course, you may expect an elegant ambience and professional technical equipment.
