There are six unique buildings, offering a variety of meeting rooms and facilities and the PNE can provide in-house event services such as catering, event management and entertainment professionals. The PNE is home to six indoor venues and we are proud to showcase a variety of specialized events on a year round basis. Consider using multiple venues on-site for larger events as we have a combined total of 191,000 square feet of indoor clear floor space available. The PNE also features several beautiful green spaces, including garden settings and parks. A big part of what sets the PNE apart from other event venues in the city is our ability to incorporate indoor and outdoor venues to create unique guest experiences. Playland amusement park is one of the PNE’s most unique venues. Corporate and special events are offered, but for a really unique team building experience consider renting Playland exclusively for your group. A private amusement park experience is an event your guests will never forget! Whether you are planning a meeting, tradeshow, banquet, conference, social event or incentive program, the PNE has a variety of opportunities to explore.
