Wheeler Auditorium Facility Information
Wheeler Auditorium is a well-equipped auditorium located centrally in Berkeley and just on the interior of the campus from one of the main entrances to UC Berkeley. The space is ideal for a variety of events and is most suited for spoken word, comedy, film screenings, and lectures. With a seating capacity of 700, the venue is perfect for many campus, local community, and corporate events. In addition to the physical space, we also offer a team of experienced professionals to help make your event a success.
During much of the academic year, the Wheeler Auditorium is primarily a classroom space Monday through Friday, and is, therefore, subject to restrictions on availability and use. In general, it is available for rental on Saturday and Sunday during the Fall and Spring Terms and is otherwise available 7 days a week during academic breaks and the summer months. Whatever your plans, please don’t hesitate to fill out our inquiry form so we can discuss pricing and availability. We look forward to helping you bring your vision to life!
