Plant Hall’s elegant ballrooms provide some of the most distinguished banquet and meeting facilities in the area. The ballrooms and public areas on the first floor remain in the same historical style as when Plant Hall was the Tampa Bay Hotel, built in 1891. Plant Hall houses three distinct ballrooms – the Music Room, the Grand Salon and Fletcher Lounge. Located under the minarets, each ballroom has a dome-shaped ceiling. The ballrooms' versatility and elegance make them an ideal site for wedding receptions, galas, graduation parties, dinners, seminars and meetings.

This is the only ballroom with its own restrooms. Antique furniture accents the interior ambiance of the room.
