“The caterers were incredibly flexible and creative and the food was absolutely amazing. The room for dinner was so stunning it literally took my breath away.”

Designed in the 1890s, this beautiful historic building located on the University of Pennsylvania’s campus is one of Philadelphia’s premier unique venues.  Penn Museum is a 300,000 square-foot gem with exterior details including glass mosaics by the Tiffany Glass Company, sculptures by Alexander Stirling Calder, and marble medallions by John Ross of New York City.  The Museum houses one-of-a-kind artifacts acquired from over 400 archaeological and anthropological expeditions, and we invite you and your guests to discover the world in just one night.  Stunning event space and priceless collections make the Penn Museum an unparalleled event experience!
