A Venue with a Story
The Rialto Banquet Hall is an elegant private event venue located in downtown Hannibal, Missouri, housed in a thoughtfully restored historic theater. Originally opened in 1937 as The Rialto Theatre, the building has long been a gathering place for the community.
As a former movie theater, The Rialto once welcomed audiences for film premieres and performances during a time when a night at the theater was a special occasion. Like many historic venues, its original chapter eventually came to a close, but its story did not end there.
Today, The Rialto has been reimagined as a warm, refined event space while preserving the character and charm that make it unique. With flexible layouts, generous open space, and carefully maintained architectural details, the venue offers a timeless setting for weddings, receptions, and special events.
Rich in local history and thoughtfully restored, The Rialto continues to bring people together, now to celebrate life’s most meaningful moments.
