Turner Hall

"Turner Hall is a beautiful, historical hall. There is a large stage, room for plenty of seating on the main floor, a second floor, and restrooms. I loved the old windows and architectural features. Parking can be challenging if there is a large event (may need to drive around on a few streets to find available street parking)."

"Deceivingly small from outside. Large seating and impressive performance venue that is historic in Galena. Fully enjoyed the musical performance of one man with piano performer too...doing Carol King songs!! He was marvelous! Looking forward to another performance that we will enjoy in the future!! Parking is difficult, be prepared to walk some!"

"Turner Hall in Galena IL is a beautiful location for an event. The historical restoration has enhanced the beauty and warmth. The restrooms are larger and clean. The portable bars are a nice feature when having 300 guests. The kitchen is clean, but small, still workable. Overall experience with staff was excellent! Highly recommend for weddings!"

"Turner Hall is a beautiful venue at an amazing value. Janelle, the Facilities Manager, is just lovely and so wonderful to work with. She was flexible with scheduling times to come see the venue and always responsive via email. It is a DIY venue but Janelle recommended a lot of great vendors in Galena who know Turner Hall. We would recommend Turner Hall as a wedding venue to anyone! It has great atmosphere and our guests loved it."

"A Galena landmark and treasure! Turner Hall has a storied history complete with its own ghost stories and historic visitors, it is a local catchall for events from being an election hall, wedding reception hall, playhouse and everything in between. It does have an attached parking lot and a side entrance for those with disabilities and mobility issues. Parking on Bench Street is limited so if you are going to Turner Hall find a spot to park EARLY and wander about downtown which is one block away until your event. The restrooms are SMALL (the building is very old which does cause some limitations) but they have been modernized and are easily accessible. The structure has undergone renovations through the years but still maintains its mystique and charm. More are needed but it is a wonderful facility for small events and lends itself to the charms of Galena. Enjoy your visit!"
