11 Nov San Diego Natural History Museum
At your next event, why not sip on a specialty cocktail while admiring an exhibition of rare and precious gems? Or enjoy a bevy of gourmet hors d’oeuvres next to a giant megalodon shark that hales from the San Diego region? You can experience this and all the natural history our region of Southern California has to offer at the majestic San Diego Natural History Museum in Balboa Park.
The Sefton Grand Atrium in the museum is a sharp and modern space with a four-story translucent ceiling perfect for a wedding of 275 guests for a seated dinner, or a corporate cocktail reception of 500. Curious guests can explore the numerous exhibitions and galleries, including the museum’s permanent Fossil Mysteries wing. Here you can examine fossils found by the Museum’s paleontologists and discover what plants and animals looked like from 75 million to 10,000 years ago in the Southern California and Baja California region.
For those looking to move their party outdoors, take advantage of San Diego’s year-round beautiful weather on the El Mirador Rooftop Terrace, the only one of its kind in Balboa Park. It has superb views of Balboa Park, downtown, and the San Diego Bay. The space can accommodate 100 for a seated dinner, up to 200 guests for a reception, or 190 for a ceremony.
Rental fees are charged by the hour and vary depending on areas of the museum you would like to reserve, but a 4 hour minimum is required to secure your date. The venue does not include any rentals, but The Abbey Catering can take care of those needs for you.
