Formerly known as The Banking Hall, The Grand Atrium stands as a masterpiece of architectural grace and function, an expansive event space that redefines what it means to host with distinction.

Located along Diosdado Macapagal Avenue in Pasay, merely minutes from the World Trade Center and the vibrant Bay Area entertainment district, The Grand Atrium is perfectly positioned as a prime address for prestigious events.

It’s a space that speaks volumes, literally. With the capacity to accommodate up to 1,000 guests, its soaring ceilings, heritage columns and timeless finishes create an environment where every gathering is elevated into a memorable experience.

“The Grand Atrium is more than just a venue. It’s a destination. Its scale, design and location create an atmosphere that inspires and impresses,” says Joselito Consunji, chief operating officer of PNB Holdings Corp.

Once the epicenter of PNB’s executive banking operations, the hall’s rich history lends events an added layer of significance.

Today, this storied space has been thoughtfully transformed to meet the demands of the modern host, offering cutting-edge lighting, flexible staging and modular seating arrangements while retaining the dignified ambiance of its past.

“We’ve carefully restored and enhanced this space to preserve its heritage while making it fully adaptable for today’s event needs,” says Consunji.

It’s a space that can transform to suit any vision.
