Attend a conference or exposition or enjoy a meal at this celebrated Saint-Malo venue. Located on the water’s edge, it offers uninterrupted views of the ocean.

Le Grande Large, also known as the Palais du Grand Large, is a multipurpose events venue on the sunny shores of Saint-Malo in northern France. Four levels and 16 rooms of different sizes make the center suitable for a wide range of events. Take part in a conference, listen to lectures or have a formal dinner. Then enjoy the center’s superior location on the scenic oceanfront in Saint-Malo.

Explore the conference center, which is built on the site of a casino that was destroyed in the 1944 bombings of World War II. The venue was rebuilt in the 1950s and transformed in the late 1980s into a multifaceted, welcoming space for conferences.

Attend one of the conferences that take place in this stylish venue. The large range of rooms can be adapted to better fit intended uses. Chairs, dining tables and exposition boards can be added or removed. Meet other scientists and medical professionals in one of the annual congresses that happen here.

The largest room is the Auditorium Chateaubriand, which can host over 1,000 people for lectures. Wander into one of the rotundas for panoramic views of Saint-Malo and the sea stretching toward the horizon.

Relax after the day’s events in the neighboring casino, where you can play poker and traditional table games for an evening’s entertainment. Alternatively, head down to one of the waterfront restaurants for a sunset meal by the ocean.

The conference center is located directly opposite the Grande Plage, one of the best beaches in the region. After a long working day, relax with a stroll along the shoreline at dusk.

Find the Palais du Grand Large on the northern shores of Saint-Malo, facing Sillon Beach. Multiple parking lots are available around the complex for any visitors arriving by car. Walk here in 20 minutes from the train station in Saint-Malo. Several accommodations for a range of budgets are available along the waterfront and in the town center.
