In June 2024, Euronext Dublin had the pleasure of welcoming leading financial services provider Cantor Fitzgerald Ireland and clients to the stock exchange’s historic Market Floor, one of the first events to take advantage of a new event space in Dublin.
The Market Floor Dublin
The imposing high-ceilinged room in Anglesea Street, the Market Floor, was known simply as ‘the Room’ by traders who carried out their daily trading there for well over a century . Built in the Italianate style, the Market Floor features ornate pillars and wood panelling, and is lit by chandeliers from Waterford Crystal, the world-renowned Irish crystal manufacturer.Prices were chalked up a large chalkboard, and traders gathered at wooden desks arranged in a wide oval.
With the advent of electronic trading in June 2000, open outcry trading came to an abrupt end and the traders swapped the activity of floor trading for screens and electronic pricing.
Now that the Market Floor no longer sees the hustle and bustle of traders, it has been converted to become a very special meeting and events space, and has been brought right up to date with the latest event technology and furnishing matching your event needs , while retaining its impressive history.
Cantor Fitzgerald Ireland client event
Cantor Fitzgerald Ireland’s event began with a cocktail reception in the exchange’s modern Atrium, followed by a panel discussion and networking in the impressive Market Floor room.
“We would like to thank Euronext Dublin’s CEO, Daryl Byrne, for providing us with exclusive access to such a prestigious Dublin landmark and sharing its unique history, and of course, to our clients for making it such an enjoyable evening.”

The event was just one example of the type of event that Euronext Dublin can help organise. Many other options and configurations are available: you could consider holding a Bell Ringing Ceremony, corporate lunch, AGM, cocktail reception or other celebration event on the Market Floor.
