Originally a repair shed for train engines, the Exhibition Hall retains much of the original post and beam architecture, and even some railway tracks which remain embedded in its polished concrete floor. Natural light, high ceilings, and the floor-to-ceiling windows provide a dramatic space, well-suited for large gatherings, parties, exhibitions, trade shows, conferences, performances, and weddings. 

The outside doors provide access to the Turntable Plaza. In the default set-up, twenty percent of the Exhibition Hall is reserved as lobby space for the adjacent Performance Centre, however moveable display walls allow for adaptable use of this space.
