Presentation of our function rooms
Auditorium
The museum’s auditorium has a capacity of 180 people seated (90 people according to current COVID measures) for plenary meetings and conferences in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
This area also has a foyer to accommodate catering services when you are holding study days in the auditorium. These areas come together as a package, along with the furniture and technical services (1 technician will be present for the whole event).
You’ll also be able to use a private terrace area in the archaeological garden.

A simple evening of drinks and nibbles, a cocktail reception, gala evening, award’s ceremony, professional function, company anniversary, etc. This bright, modular room has a surface area of 189 m2 and a 70 m2 private terrace area, and can be adapted to all your events. The exceptional view of the Arena makes this a unique venue to surprise your guests. For an even more incredible experience, your guests will have free access to the rooftop with 360° view over the whole town and its monuments.

The rooftop
A glass of champagne under the starry sky with “lounge”style music playing in the background…
The Museum’s rooftop is an elegant venue for your important events, with a 360° view of the town, guaranteed to leave unforgettable memories for all your guests. A chic atmosphere that really leaves a lasting impression.
The rooftop is big enough to accommodate 500 people. We can hold events here from the end of May to October, however if the weather conditions mean that the event cannot be held outdoors, a booking of the rooftop includes a “plan B” solution in the function room or in the lobby on Rue Romaine.
Lobby / Rue Romaine
In booking out this area on the ground floor for a private function, you’ll also have VIP access to the collections of the museum tour, and separate access to the sheltered Rue Romaine in the atrium. There is a superb view of the Arena from this area.
Take the experience even further by walking around the museum’s archaeological gardens. This historic place has a similar capacity to the rooftop and is ideal for displaying products such as vehicles for a product launch event.
Temporary exhibition hall
At the heart of the museum, this modular area can be adapted to all types of events. It can be divided into a 300m2 and 450m2 space, or you can use the entire 600m2 area.
The exhibition hall is connected to the atrium, the nerve centre of the museum, as well as to the outdoor patio in the archaeological gardens and the museum’s auditorium, making it the ideal venue for any type of event. The exhibition hall is big enough to accommodate 500 people.

All of this, in a museum with exceptional collections, in the ideal location opposite the Arena of Nîmes, and a short distance from the train station. Spaces of varying size and shape, to accommodate groups of all sizes.
Anne Guibert, Head of Communication and Development at Amapl
It is largely thanks to the possibilities in terms of layout and installations offered by the Museum that our event was a success.
We particularly appreciated the availability and kindness of the sales and technical teams who were always able to find solutions and assist us from beginning to end.
For a second time, we chose to organise one of our events and welcomed our clients to the Musée de la Romanité, thanks to the excellent services and the ideal location overlooking the Arena
