Venues & Event Spaces near Penn Hills, PA

“Great little venue. So pretty inside! We were here to see an artist we know and like perform. Apparently they have shows here frequently throughout the year. There’s tables set up and you can bring your own food and drinks. They were also selling snacks like chips and pop. We had a great evening listening to music!”

“Found Songbird Artistry online and purchased these candles for a corporate gift. We received them very quickly and they are all perfect! Highly recommend ordering online if you aren't local! Thanks Songbird Artistry!!”

“I recently photographed a wedding here and was very impressed! Beautiful for photos, easy parking, great staff! I would definitely recommend this gorgeous venue! ”

“Nice theater. You can purchase drinks and snacks at the theater. The I Loathe Lucy performance we saw was fun! This was our first time at this theater. I would purchase different seats next time because the platform seating can block your view if sitting to the left or right of the platform.”

“Our church group attended an event here. Everyone had their very own section of the table, and everyone had the tools to create what they pre-selected to make. The instruction was very well-done, and the creativity was left up to each one of us. The people teaching us there gave good tips for creating beautiful projects. I’m sure that the projects we created will be treasured for years to come. We even were allowed to have pizza delivered to the venue to enjoy. This was a really nice time. I enjoyed it.”

“When you gaze upon the iconic US structures such as the Empire State Building or the Golden Gate Bridge do you ever wonder where the steel and iron came from to build such monuments? I give you the Carrie Blast Furnace the mother of all things great and mighty. The tour and guides are very knowledgeable and friendly and add the local flair to the walk of giants. This is Pittsburgh folks; what made it the mighty city it is and what a treat to see both how iron was produced but to think these very furnaces fueled America is beyond reality. Well worth your time and effort for such intimate experiences you would have never imagined.”

“As a wedding photographer, I see a lot of wedding venues. Edgewood Country Club really has a stunning location. The golf course views are the perfect backdrop for couples photos and the ballroom has great lighting and high ceilings. Getting ready areas are also very spacious. The staff is friendly and communicates well with vendors.”

“Hosted a beautiful bridal shower at the Whitehall House. The event coordinator, Kelly, was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely helpful and transparent with the rules and fees. Our day of hostess, Judy, was also wonderful! She had the room set-up exactly how we requested and had our music and PowerPoint playing when we arrived. It was so fun, decorating their beautiful space. Looking forward to hosting more events there in the future. Thanks again Kelly and Judy!”

“Love going here for the brown bag series. I’ve enjoyed every show I’ve attended. A great way to ease your way into a full opera or to try to see if you like it. This place is family friendly and great for all ages. Check it out!!”

“Thanks to the museum for hosting my Navy retirement ceremony on April 7, 2023. To say that Angela Tomlin and her staff helped make the event a success is an understatement! The entire museum’s hospitality was incredible. Any/everything we asked of them was handled almost instantly, and Angela and her team were a TREASURE to work with! Everyone in attendance were astounded by the 3rd floor ballroom, and I’m still beyond humbled for the privilege.”

“Despite the bright panels on the outside, Irma Freeman Center for the Imagination is in many ways a blink-and-you'll-miss-it kind of place. Even after having been past it on foot several times, I often had fairly little idea what it was. My first impression was that it might be a community center for disabled or destitute youths, and therefore somewhere that serves a valuable cultural function but in which I have no place. I was very incorrect in this assumption, as I found out later. One day, while the doors were open, I walked in. I was treated to a private, minimalistic indie gallery featuring work by local artists. At the time, the exhibit focused principally on abandoned sites in the Pittsburgh area, with photographs giving an eerie portrait of the region's history. It was as though the photographers were archaeologists documenting recent times that have fallen into obscurity and ruin. This is of course not the only exhibit: Irma Freeman's collections, ever changing, deal with a number of different artists and themes. Gift shop at the front door and opening night receptions every First Friday of the month. Strongly recommend!”

“Beautiful location to visit. I had an issue with the pillow cases and the mattress cover not being cleaned but once I brought it to a manager's attention it was dealt with immediately. I wish I had gotten her name but she was a middle aged black female, with shoulder length dark hair, working the day shift, kudos to her. The females working the front counter were just as pleasant.”

“We had a great time having our wedding reception at the Hampton Event Center.Pros:- Lori is very nice and provides lots of helpful tips and suggestions for making sure the event goes smoothly. As people who hadn't planned a wedding before, having her as a guide made things a lot easier.- The decorations were quite pretty. I especially liked the Christmas decorations for our December wedding.- The synthetic flowers look almost real. Don't fret about looks if you want to save money on flowers.- The tablecloth, runner, and napkin selection is diverse with some good colors.- The table runners are very sparkly and pretty to look at.- The bartender provided for events is really friendly.- Being able to have an all-inclusive package is very helpful, especially for us coming in from out of town. It makes preparations a lot smoother. Not having to hunt around for a cake, flowers, caterer, etc., is very nice.- The layout of the hall is very efficient and organized.- Having card boxes and gift tables ready for use is very helpful.- Being able to order cases of craft beer that you can take home after the wedding is great.- Although many people didn't use it at our wedding, the offers for hotel discounts for guests coming in from out of town are very helpful.- The location of the venue, being in the North Hills, would be very convenient for most weddings.- The gazebo is great for photos.Cons:- The easel they provided for seating charts is unstable/broken. I would consider bringing your own system for your seating chart.- Some of the dinner sides are a bit bland, mainly the mashed potatoes and green beans.- Lori can sometimes be a bit slow to respond to emails, but I think some of that can be attributed to the workload she has.We definitely recommend that you consider Hampton for your wedding reception.”

“i found this place on tiktok and it was awesome!! i traveled from ohio and knew this was somewhere i had to go. i ended up meeting the person that ran the tiktok account and they were such a sweetie. it was so awesome to browse everything!”

“We happened to be walking by around lunchtime and decided to try the fish fry. We both got fried shrimp dinners, with pierogies, coleslaw, and haluski. Everything was great and the folks there are very accommodating (since we'd never been there before and we're confused!). And they take credit cards. The fried fish sandwiches looked good too. And large.The social hall had a lot of tables set up to dine in and a bar to sit at as well.”

“Was originally looking for a hotel closer to Squirrel Hill but none looked promising. So glad I found this one instead! Great facilities. Great staff. Most importantly it's clean and well run. Hot breakfast with a wide selection of items. Free coffee, tea/hot water all day long. Rooms are spacious, modern and quiet. Would definitly stay here again. Close to food and shopping.The IHG app's Wi-Fi Auto Connect also works great. More convenient and SECURE than the typical open, non-encrypted public hotel wifi that requires a portal log-on.”

“This event center was perfect for our social and emotional wellness event. Janae is professional and available when called upon. I highly recommend using them. I will definitely use them again.”

“Love the club! Everyone who goes here is family..we laugh so much. This club has THE BEST daytime bartenders in West Mifflin..very polite.. attentive and just all around the best bunch of ladies”

“An absolute amazing experience! The best field trip I have ever chaperoned! Extremely interactive and engaging!!! I would recommend the Sherwood Event Center to anyone!!!”

“100% recommend! Me and my husband had our wedding here 8/13/22 Lois and the rest of her team at the four season banquet house were amazing!!! Every step of the way Lois helped us make sure we did not forget any details and offered many helpful suggestions. Policies are super great to work with as well as we were able to personalize so much of our big day ( had our dog at our wedding, a food truck, ect! ) throughout the day Lois and her team even took pictures to help us remember our big day! This was so thoughtful as we will not get all of our professional ones back for some time. Some of the ones she took ended up being some of our favorite! At the end of the night her and her team even helped us clean and pack up everything! We can’t wait to come back again some day!! Thank you for helping us in our fairytale”

“My family and I went to The Manchester Room for Drag Queen Bingo, to benefit the Zombie Traveling Baseball Team. We had an absolute blast. They played great music. And, all of the performances were very entertaining. We thought the $30 admission was incredibly reasonable, since it included 6 games of bingo, a great drag queen show, our meal, dessert options and non-alcoholic beverages. And, it was a BYOB event, if you wanted to enjoy a cocktail or a beer.Sadly, all of us commented about the HUGE pillar, located right in the middle of the room. It inevitably presented a tremendous obstacle to everyone's ability to watch the show, no matter where you were seated. It's a total shame that the owner/ designer didn't spend the money on a metal support cross beam, to run the entire width of the room. It would be such a beautiful banquet room, if it had been designed without that enormous pillar in the middle of the room. Plus, removing it would leave enough space, to add another round table in the room.”

“Great venue for almost anything. Tonight's fireworks display was fantastic!!! Way better than Pittsburgh!!! Up close and personal. Food trucks, vendors, and great music by MOJO Band!!! Awesome evening!! Shout out to the owner, Steve, for this fabulous event so close to home; and to Tank, for a great fireworks show. Unbelievable!!!”

“My niece reserved Lil Bunny for her daughter's 2nd birthday. It is was delightfully clean and bright with play space and activities for small children. The space is more deep than wide. I like the "no shoes" policy and dedicated food area. We had the venue to ourselves! The restrooms were very clean. The staff was very nice and helpful. Fun place with 2 massage chairs for adults (takes debit & credit cards). Would definitely recommend for small children 7 and under. Note: Lil Bunny also has general play times outside of reserved dates just for fun. Enjoy!”

“Nic & Dees is a very professional and adorable venue rental, I’ve been to multiple gatherings including but not limited to baby showers,adult birthday parties and children’s birthday parties..even had my son sons first birthday party here! I highly recommend booking when looking for a clean spacious venue for your next gathering!”

“I haven't had an event yet, but the facility is great. They give you time to set up and have 4 hour event. Staff is very friendly and obliging. Tables are dec I rated in black b u t you can bring your own decorations. Can seat almost 100 people.”

“I love the energy in this venue. I have been there twice and each show has felt wholesome.I like that they allow for certain walls to become a collective diary of those of who me have passed through the venue. There are many places where stickers are welcome to be stuck.The staff is nice and I would like the mention a particular thank you to this venue for supplying earplugs.”

“Theaters were clean. The seats were the upgraded stadium seating that partially leaned back. Watched 3 different movies in different theaters. Don't think they have recliners in any of the other theaters. But at that price, I didn't care. Think the matinees were $5.75 or something. Cheap price to see a film in such a clean and comfortable theater. Also wanted to add that they have a self serve ticket kiosk, inside mall, located at the entrance to the theater. In case you wanted to bypass the ticket register to the left or you weren't planning on buying snacks and wanted to bypass that line, too. Wish I didn't live an hour away, I'd be there every week.”

“We had a wonderful stay!! I'm from Pittsburgh and drove by this place 1000 times! I had no idea it was a place to stay until recently. The mansion is gorgeous and the architecture is beautiful. The wood work in this place is mind blowing!!! It's amazing! Top grade craftsmanship went into building this place and renovating it.The night we got there, there was a party downstairs on the main floor around the main entrance. We pulled up and could hear the music. Parking gave us a bit of anxiety but it worked out. We did get a spot around back. They have valet parking. The valet driver just told us where to park so we followed that direction. he also asked us before parking if we had plans on leaving. That's important because if you want to leave and there is a party, it could take a good bit to get your car out. We didn't have an issue because we stayed in.We stayed up on the 3rd floor. This place is so big and so solid that we couldn't hear a peep coming from the party on the first floor!!! Our room was big and private. We didn't encounter anyone else on our floor the whole weekend. There were no noisy people upstairs or beside us or roaming the halls. The place is so solid that we didn't hear a peep!!! The bathroom in our room had a nice shower, TV, comfy bed.There is a staircase and stained glass window as soon as you walk in the main entrance that's breathtaking. we walked a few streets over the next day to Pamela's for breakfast which I would also recommend. We had a great stay. I think there are extras you can add on to your stay like butler service or breakfast but we didn't do that. we were just kind of left to enjoy and we loved that! The lady that checked us in and out was so nice. It was really incredible to see this place if you are a fan of architecture. Chefs kiss!!I do think it would be helpful if they had a little map or something for people that stay. Trying to figure out how to get to our room took us a few minutes because we had to check in inside the house next door, walk into the mansion, take the elevator up and figure out how to get up to 3. The lady that checked us in gave us directions that were clear but when you don't know where you are going it takes a few minutes to figure out the route. We figured out 2 ways to get up to the 3rd floor. There's probably more the place is so big. It's really an awesome place. I would say go if you want a weekend away and are from pgh. It's so much better than a hotel!!! It's top notch!”
