The total seating capacity of the Great Hall is 1,231 which includes 448 tiered seats and 783 removable auditorium seating which means they are flexible with the set up arrangement of any event.

Lymlive Media were approached by Newcastle University to discuss options available to provide viewing platforms for The Great Hall. Lymlive Media supplied and installed two Nexnovo XRW3 Transparent LED Screens, (5 metres wide X 3 metres high) suspended high from engineered side support beams either side of the great hall, allowing all attendees of The Great Hall visibility to any content being displayed during any of the functions held within.
