What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Sesc Palladium is appreciated for its beautiful building, excellent seating, and well-organized events and student activities. However, visitors frequently express frustration with strict photography policies that limit personal photos and the lack of convenient, affordable parking in the central location.
"I went to a graduation there yesterday. It was very disorganized, some employees gave information that was denied by other employees. The people who were last in the photos had to do it quickly because it was time for the event to start.
They don't allow you to take pictures of the trainees because then they offer a photo package at a very high price, I don't agree but I understand. But the employees didn't even allow the guests to take pictures with each other, in this case I think they cross the line because professional photographers don't take pictures of the guests alone, only with the graduates, so there's no reason for this prohibition.
There is no parking there, all around are expensive and street parking is exclusive to taxis or rotary.
There were also positives. The building itself is very beautiful, the event was exciting. It has accessible seats for overweight people, who are at the back of the auditorium. Entry was well controlled and went very quickly despite the large queue."
