The Grand Foyer is a stately marble hall with 40-foot ceilings, twin half domes, marble columns, travertine floors, and oversized chandeliers, but it’s also home to the museum’s iconic “Dueling Dinosaurs.” Despite the fact that these complete skeletons of a Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops are locked in battle, the “dinos” have presided over many happy occasions including wedding ceremonies, cocktail receptions, and corporate holiday parties. Flanked on each side by the North American Mammal Hall and African Mammal Hall, the Grand Foyer serves as the ultimate starting point for any event at the Natural History Museum.
