Royce Hall, named for Josiah Royce, a leading
philosopher of the time, is an architectural landmark of UCLA
and one of the original four buildings of the Westwood campus
constructed in 1929. The building was modeled after a Milan,
Italy, basilica and was designed by architect David Allison.
The auditorium seats 1,833, houses an antique pipe organ and
has been host to a wide variety of world renowned performing
artists. Renovated after the 1994 Northridge earthquake, the
hall has stunning acoustics.
