This room is filled with video screens, and the one wall without a video bears the title "The Endless Celebration." The videos playing here cover three broad themes: Versailles as a stage for the arts, Versailles as a venue for eternal celebration, and Versailles as a political stage. Once the center of royal power, the palace has since reinvented itself — today it draws ten million visitors a year and hosts more than a hundred performances annually as a thriving arts venue. These videos document that transformation.
