Banquet Hall

Banquet Hall is currently unlocked when the player reaches level 7, however this level requirement may rise with future updates to the game as the picture is currently being used in the Social Events Update's timed challenges, so has been given a low entry requirement to ensure all players can take part in the event.

Banquet Hall was introduced during the Social Events Update (September 2015). For the duration of the Update, Invitations special items were needed in addition to energy points to play Banquet Hall.

For the duration of the Social Events Update's Timed Challenges, Invitations are given as rewards for every successful investigation for every picture, as well as for banishing anomalies, but not for playing puzzles.

Once the timed challenges are complete or when the timer runs out (whichever happens first), the Invitations will most likely be restricted to rewards for playing just a couple of pictures. Invitations cannot be gifted between Friends, however 5 Social Events collections give them as rewards for combining.

From the Diary:

"Someone put a magical photo from Richard's collection inside today's newspaper. Christy told me it was made after some fete in the Order. Hmm, looking at this photo, the scale of the party seems really huge, given the huge banquet hall. I wonder who put this photo in the newspaper? Was it Richard himself?"

Banquet Hall is one of the 9 pictures in the game that does not reward any combining elements, but does reward collection items that require a large number of combining elements to combine.
