8 pyramid hall napoléon The Louvre Pyramid has become one of Paris’s most iconic landmarks. Though once controversial, it is impossible today to imagine the main entrance to the museum without the iconic 21-metre pyramid designed by I.M. Pei. The perfect geometry of its glass and steel structure stands in striking contrast to the surrounding Second Empire buildings. During the daytime, the Pyramid mirrors the Paris sky; after nightfall, it shines as brightly as the City of Light itself. Under the Pyramid, the Hall Napoléon, a vast reception area outfitted entirely in white concrete and Chassagne beige stone, harmoniously complements the pure geometry of its form, an exemplary feat of contemporary architecture comprising straight and oblique lines, triangles and pyramidions , circular and spiral motifs. Available for private events on Tuesdays, when the museum is closed, the Pyramid can accommodate up to 1,500 guests for dinners or up to 3,000 guests for cocktail receptions. Floor space: 2,500 square metres Seating capacity: 1,500 guests Standing capacity: 3,000 guests Tuesdays only (museum closed all day). 1 Galerie du Carrousel Auditorium Temporary Exhibitions i i Richelieu Wing Cloakroom Sully Wing Salle Ovale Performance, Hall Napoléon Cocktail reception, Hall Napoléon Denon Wing
