Bataan Hall

Bataan Hall is a flexible event venue in downtown Taos, available to rent through UNM-Taos. Its historic adobe setting dates from the 1930s, while the facilities are equipped for a wide range of contemporary gatherings, from conferences and seminars to community events, performances, graduations, job fairs and weddings.

The hall provides approximately 7,380 square feet of space. Organisers can plan for up to 450 guests in an auditorium-style arrangement, or around 250 for a banquet layout. A stage and presentation screen support talks and performances, while the in-house audiovisual system includes a projector, speakers, microphones and a podium. Padded chairs, adjustable lighting, public parking and nearby downtown amenities add to the practical details for event planning.

Additional options may include courtyard access, table linens, wireless or wired internet, audiovisual technical support, custodial services and custom room layouts. The venue also has a meeting room and a green room, useful for smaller sessions or preparations before a programme begins. Hotel discounts may be available for qualifying multi-day or weekend bookings through local accommodation partners.

Catering is arranged separately and requires venue approval. There is no kitchen on site, so organisers should confirm their catering plans and any related requirements with the events team in advance. Rental rates vary by weekday or weekend, and eligible government agencies and non-profit organisations may qualify for discounts. Located beside Rio Grande Hall on Civic Plaza Drive, Bataan Hall offers a central Taos setting for organisers seeking a substantial indoor space with presentation facilities.
