There really is no other venue like the Empress Building, which is why it’s the perfect place to host your charity event. The Ballroom is a jewel in the City of Doncaster’s remarkable crown. With expansive space created by the elegant, imposing high ceiling, and surrounded by photogenic lavish décor that has been saved from the building’s 1920s origins and brought back to life, the Empress Ballroom is guaranteed to give your charity event the glamourous stage for a memorable occasion.
The Empress Building provides a host of live entertainment from the UK’s
most talented comedians, sports personalities, and musicians.
Managed by a talented team of caterers to deliver fresh, we are equipped
to deliver delicious food for up to 350 guest supporters. Serving the finest
Yorkshire hospitality, we proudly present fine dining and seasonal
banquets throughout the year. You can be sure that our menu options are
ready to impress your guests.
The Ballroom is the perfect venue to bring together potential supporters in
a stylish charity gala venue. Ballroom Galas are a social occasion, providing
fine dining and entertainment for guests. Charities use gala events as
fundraising opportunities to gather valuable support for a worthy cause.
Ballroom galas are usually a black-tie event, requiring guests to arrive in
formal attire. The opportunity to dress up and enjoy a glass of fizz is always
fun. If you want to indulge your guests’ theatrical side, a themed evening
might be just the ticket. As a charity ballroom venue, you have the option to
host a Masquerade evening or 1920s gangster and moll theme.
