The Grandest of Grand
The Grand Ballroom’s 6,150 square feet of flexible event space, 16-foot windows with sweeping views of Lake Mendota, and sophisticated, inviting room finishes make it one of the most memorable event spaces in the Midwest. The terraces are located directly outside The Grand Ballroom, adjacent also to The Plaza, and provides an intimate outdoor setting overlooking the lake.

The Nolen Gallery
The wonderful Nolen Gallery, just outside The Grand Ballroom, provides a unique dimension to your celebration. It can be used with any event in the ballroom and is great for cocktail parties with a main event in the ballroom. The gallery has access to an outdoor terrace overlooking Picnic Point and the entire shoreline of beautiful Lake Mendota, and it is equipped with a fireplace and plush seating.
