I'm looking for a place I can rent for a private Saturday night
dance party for a 45 year old birthday celebration. Many of the
older posted venues no longer exist, so I am hoping for some new
ideas! Ideally a place where we can play our own music with a
dance floor and bring our own food and drinks- A place like
Ashkenaz would be ideal.

I DJ for a lot of different family-friendly gatherings and have found that there are nice
multi-purpose rooms for rent by local churches, temples, and other religious centers, as well
as senior centers. I suggest that you choose a neighborhood or part of town that best suits
you and your guests, and then look at the spaces in that area. They often include access to a
kitchen, which is nice when you're having a private party. Flooring is a major factor to
consider for a dance party. Some dance studios are available for rent, but may not allow
shoes. Don't forget about parking, too. Feel free to contact me if you'd like to brainstorm
about specific venues. Good luck! - DJ Sandina sandina10@earthlink.net
Try the Hillside Club, on Cedar St. in Berkeley.

I had my 50th birthday party at the Boat House on Lake Merritt.
It was fabulous! You bring your own music (we used a DJ) and food. You can find out price
and availability from the Oakland Dept of Parks and Rec. It was very affordable and the
location couldn't be better. They have a great kitchen there with many kitchen supplies. The
dancing space is perfect. Best of luck!

Check out the Oakland Parks Dept.
Sequoia Lodge is a great party/dance place.
They have a ''sunken'' sitting area with a big fireplace.
There are 2 other places within the Oakland Parks Dept...I can't remember the names...one
starts with ''L'' ....they all have great dance floors and kitchens and parking.
Good luck,

I am looking for a location to host a Halloween Party that is
reasonably priced or free to non-profit organizations. The age
range is infant - 5 years old approx.
Stumped .....
Kids 'N Dance in Oakland and Lafayette rents their space. Not too expensive.

You can rent out the fieldhouse in Point Richmond for parties. It is a large building full
of toys, things to ride on or climb, and has a large grassy playground surrounded by a
fence. There is a kitchen, bathrooms, kid sized table and chairs etc. It is run by PRAM
(see www.PRAM.net) and is inexpensive. The cost to rent the fieldhouse is only $50 for
a 4 hour time slot or $75 for the whole day.

I'd like to have a birthday party to celebrate my husband's
40th birthday party in August. I'm thinking fun and casual --
catered bbq, beer and music.
I'd like recos on places that might be good for this type of
party and would accomodate 50 or so people. I looked into the
Redwood Heights Rec center, but it sounds like they're booked
for August and don't allow alcohol.
You could try the Berkeley Yacht Club. They rent it out to people who
aren't members for parties and such. They have a bar, and a kitchen (I
believe you'd have to hire the caterers), as well as an area for bands.
Karen
My husband has a cafe in West Berkeley called Home Cafe (900
Grayson at Seventh Street, near Scharffenberger and Ecole
Bilingue) which he occasionally rents out in the evening for
private parties. It accommodates 50 people comfortably (standing
up, milling around), and there's also a beer bar and back patio.
No room for a dance floor, though, if you're looking for that.
The nice part about the cafe rental is that you get the whole
place for yourself and your friends since the cafe is closed in
the evenings. Check out the cafe during the day, and if you like
it, call Bill at 510-919-7279 for more info.
Clarisse
There's this place called the Congo Lounge above another place
called Pizza Rustic. Pizza Rustica caters a variety of foods
(not only pizza) for parties in the lounge upstairs. It's a fun
little space that not too many people know about... ideal for a
party your size. They lease out the space for a reaonable
amount for private parties with full catering. I think they can
hook you up with music too. I know that they have performances
from time to time.
They've got a full bar with tiki lounge decor... so maybe a
hawaiian shirt/hula skirt kind of party might be fun. The place
is located on 5422 College Avenue in Rockridge. Hope you find
what you're looking for!
Good luck!
Jina :)
Spud's Pizza in South Berkeley, at the corner of Adeline and
Alcatraz Streets, has a Banquet Room that accomodates up to 40
people comfortably for your private party. Reservations are
required, though there is no fee for the use of the room,
provided that the event is catered by Spud's.
For informaqtion, please call 510-597-0795
Andrew
There is a new gaming center located at 2570 Bancroft Way
in Berkeley (cross street is Telegraph) that caters to
large birthday parties. I took my little brother for
his birthday and we had 20 kids playing video games all
in the same game at the same time.. It was a ton of fun.
Their website is www.glabonline.com.
I would recommend this place for any private party for
10 year olds and higher as they are reasonably priced
and its alot of fun.

We want to have a karaoke party this summer. We expect to have
about 40 people, both kids (mostly ages 7 and up) and adults,
and want either (1) a restaurant with decent food, a large
enough private room, and (of course) a karaoke machine; or (2)
someone who can do the karaoke setup at our house or at a
restaurant that has an appropriate room. Any thoughts?
Madonna Wannabe
Try Sentosa Cafe and Restaurant, in Richmond/El Cerrito, off the
Central Avenue exit (towards Ranch 99). It's a great
Malaysian/Singapore/Thai restaurant with a back room that is
perfect for large parties and karaoke gatherings. The food is
delicious!
Sentosa Cafe: 3150 Pierce St., Richmond: 510-559-9388
Cafe Eclectica is a great space for a karaoke party! It holds
up to 73 people; there is a karaoke machine as well as a kitchen
with refrig. and freezer if you want to bring in your own food.
Cafe rentals are $40 per hour with a 3 hour minimum. For
further information contact cbell AT communitylearningservices.org.
Feb 2004
I'm looking for an in-door rental facility in the East Bay for
my husbands 50th Birthday party. The facility will need to
accommodate a band, dancing, and 100+ guests. We're on a budget
so I'd like to keep the cost of that hall down to about $600.
I've looked at the existing recommendations on the website, but
still need additional suggestions
My husband & I got married at the Sequoia Lodge in the
Oakland hills. It's run by Oakland Parks & Rec. It's a
beautiful lodge with full facilities;we had 80 guests, catering,
a DJ with dancing, and full seating with tables, and the room
could have held more. The price was reasonable at the
time, but I don't know what it is now. Give them a call for a
price and a look-see.
andrea
If you're interested in Berkeley, you might want to check out
facilities on and around campus. There are large meeting rooms
in the student union building and in some of the residential
facilities. Extension has a building in downtown Berkeley
(around the corner from the main library) with a large ballroom
with a beamed ceiling and a fireplace. I have no idea the cost
of these rooms. Good luck
anon
I have rented the City of Albany's Community Room. Its large
enough for your party, resonable rates, and they do the
table/chair set up for you. The Coordinator I worked with was
Jess and his number is 510-559-7217.
Chelle
You might try the Sons of Norway Hall on MacArthur about a block
south of Fruitvalle. I think they can accomodate about 100 and
they are very reasonable. Parking is tight, but you can probably
use the Safeway lot next door. A number of AC Transit lines run
near by so your guests can easily use the bus or come up from
BART. Have fun!
David
Try the Joaquin Miller Community Center.
http://www.oaklandnet.com/parks/facilities/rental_joaquinmiller.asp
The City of Oakland also has other sites available to rent.
Merrilee
I know a great place for your party - Lake Merritt United
Methodist Church in Oakland. I am the facilities manager for
the church and handle all the rentals. Our social hall easily
acommodates 100 folks, a band, and dancing. The view of Lake
Merritt is wonderful, too. Please give me a call at 510-465-
4793 and we can discuss details.
By the way, we also rent out our sanctuary for weddings and
holy unions. We have meeting space as well. so if anyone is
looking for an East Bay location for their event, please give
me a call! You can check our website at www.lakemerrittumc.com
for pictures.

Can anyone give personal recommendations on where to
host a large party (for 200, evening buffet) in the
East Bay? I'm interested in details like quality of
food, on site or brought-in catering, parking, costs,
etc. Thanks in advance.
Helene
I would definitley recommend the Rockefeller Lodge in
San Pablo, CA. I had my wedding there and it was
beautiful. The lodge is surrounded by gardens and
fountains and they have a beautiful indoor area with
a bar. They offer a buffet dinner and or appetizers.
They are in the phone book and they have really
reasonable prices. Try it you will love it.
Alex
You could try the Faculty Club at UCB. It's
beautiful and they can cater a buffet or a sit down
dinner and they provide everything. We had our
wedding there and it was great.
Katherine
Check out the book ''Here Comes the Guide.'' It is
geared towards weddings, but it is very handy. FYI -
people have to pay to be included, so it is not
objective nor inclusive. You can probably find it in
your library.
Helena
I am the new facilities administrator at Lake Merritt
United Methodist Church on Lakeshore Avenue in Oakland.
I can recommend our Stark Room for a large party of up
to 200 or so guests. We do not offer catering, but an
awesome kitchen is available for caterers to use.
Parking is on the street. While this seems to be a
potential problem, we have had many large events and
people have seemed to find a place to park. Rates vary
according to group size and facilities needed. We also
have a spectacular sanctuary for weddings. Please check
out our website at lakemerrittumc.com.
I would love to help you out!
B Avalon
MOCHA (Museum of Children's Art) is a creative place
for a buffet-style party. It is a fun setting, not
fancy, but your party could range from informal to
formal. The gallery space is really nice. Outside is
a courtyard for guests to take a breather. This is at
538 Ninth St in ''Old Oakland.'' You would have to
arrange for the catering (La Cheval and the brewery
are each within a block, as is a nice deli.) You can
also hire MOCHA artists to have an art activity for
guests. 200 would probably be the max you'd want to
have. Call MOCHA at 465-8770 to inquire about costs,
capacity etc.
Lissa
I did not see the specific question about a Big Party
location so I do not know if you are only interested
in the East Bay but I recommend that you check out
Pacific Bell Park for party rentals. I work here at
the Ballpark and we have lots of options to choose from.
If you are interested, please contact Giants Enterprises
at 415-972-1800.

Looking for a recommedation for a good place for Bat Mitzvah
evening party around Berkeley. Also for fun ideas, DJ's.
Please, share your experience. Thank you.
Izabella
Hi, one of our staff members has this to say about LHS as a site
for his son's Bar Mitzvah:
I did my son's Bar Mitzvah this past September at Lawrence Hall
of Science http://lawrencehallofscience.org/pubprogs/rental.html.
I work at LHS, so I'm a little biased, but it was a fabulous
location for a number of reasons. The special events staff are
very helpful and flexible. There are several different large
spaces, indoors and outdoors that can be used for different parts
of the event. The views are incredible and the indoor spaces are
both elegant and fun (among the exhibits). Several guests
commented to us how much they loved the location, and that
despite it being a science center, it has a beautiful, dignified,
even awe inspiring feel to it. The challenge is, it is only
available for special events when the museum is closed--after 5pm
seven days a week, so it is only practical for an evening event.
We used a somewhat untraditional format on a Friday night: we
did the kiddush outdoors overlooking the entire Bay Area, came
inside to a gallery for the Bar Mitzvah ceremony, then moved into
the lobby for dinner--so we did the entire event in one place on
a Friday evening, but one could do the ceremony in a synagogue or
other location on Saturday morning, then have the dinner and
party at LHS on Saturday evening

We're starting to plan my son's Bar mitzvah for the end of
March 2007. We're thinking an afternoon party. Any ideas for
venue? I will have relatives from New York. Looking for good
places to stay. We live in Oakland hills.
Have you considered Lake Merritt United Methodist Church in
Oakland for an afternoon party? Right on Lake Merritt, near the
Kaiser Convention Center, the social hall can acommodate up to
200 guests seated. A gated courtyard with a play area is
adjacent, and makes a wonderful space if young children will be
in attendance. The facility is available for group or individual
rentals including parties, banquets, wedding receptions, etc. An
open and welcoming kind of place to people from all backgrounds.
Check out the website: www.lakemerrittumc.org. The main
restriction is no alcohol is allowed. If that's not an issue for
you, then I suggest you check it out.

Does anyone know of an outfit/business that banks walls for
parties--particularly, we are looking for someone that can
semi-camouflage that a semi-formal event is taking place in a
gymnasium.
Not Martha Stewart
I would recommed you start by going to Stumps (they have a web
site and a catelog). You can buy the supplies from them and
probably do it yourself. They mostly cater to the prom business
and I'm sure you could find something that would work. And you
could do yourself. Without knowing more about the event, I
can't recommend something specific.
Start here: http://www.stumpsprom.com/
Sept. 2003
I'm looking for a place to have my 30th b-day party. The party
will have about 50 guests. I would prefer to bring my own food,
otherwise veggie friendly appetizers. I would also either like
a full cash bar or be able to bring in alcohol. I'll have a DJ,
so dance space is key, too.
I looked at the archived suggestions, but alas all were either
unavailable or too expensive. I've tried community centers &
churches, but most have a 10 PM curfew or only do weddings
(?!?!?!). I've also tried Cafe de la Paz & Pyramid Brewery.
Any leads you could offer would be great. Or if someone wants
to lend me their house :)
30 year old party animal
It may be too far for you, but I've had two birthday parties at
the Italian-American Hall in Alameda. It's a somewhat sparse
place, but there are plenty of tables & chairs, and a sufficient
area for dancing and a small DJ setup--as well as a small stage.
(I taught some line dances and it worked out just fine.) There is
also a big, working kitchen. I think there were 40-50 people each
time and it was maybe 1/2 filled. There was an extra charge for
having alcohol on the premises (insurance). I rented it through
Andy Pagano at Pagano's Hardware on Lincoln; Andy has since
passed away, but I'm sure if you called the store, they could
tell you whom you can rent it from. I seem to recall that it was
$150-200 for the whole night. Have fun!
Jennie
The Allegro Ballroom (Emeryville) - it has dancing space and is
very reasobable in cost.
Best of luck
There's a lovely small school (65 students) on Pinehurst,
basically in the canyon between Montclair and Moraga. The site
is spectacular, nestled amongst redwoods. The building itself
is new and quite lovely. I know the school, like all CA
schools, is hurting for money, and I wonder if they'd be
willing to let you use the facility for your party for a small
fee on a weekend. I think they also have a kitchen. I think
they've had bands play there on weekends for fundraisers,and
they have a community room that looks like it could accommdate
50 wild dancers quite nicely. Check out photos at:
http://www.canyon.k12.ca.us/school/photos.htm
There's contact info there, too. You could call and ask...
Jennifer
Hi,
I do not know what all has been mentioned, but I do know of 2
great places. One is the Black Box in Oakland on 19th and
Telegraph. Laura(ie) is the manager. There is a dance floor,
art gallery, couches, they have a bar, and if they are allowed
to sell thier liquor, or whatever, they give u a cheaper rate.
There is space for food, a loft that has space for more sitting
and eating. They close up at 2am. There's room for a DJ and it
is sooooo nice. I have thrown concerts and my mother's 50th b-
day party. There is plenty of parking, Bart is right around the
corner, bus stop right in front. Very nice and the people are
friendly.
Also, Ashkenaz on Gilman and San Pablo, Starry Plough on
Shattuck, La Pena on Shattuck off Ashby. All of these are in
Berkeley. Also, check the Berkeley Marina hotels. They can be
reasonable at times. That's all I have to offer as far as
suggestions. Hope they help.
Good Luck
Marissa
Have you considered the Berkeley Yacht Club? they have a full cash
bar along with a kitchen that you or your caterers could use, and room
for at least 100. And you don't have to be a sailing nut to book it. Other yacht clubs may have similar possibilities -- I'm not sure.
You can find information about them on line -- just do a google search.
Karen
You might try the Redwood Heights Rec Center. It's very
inexpensive, has a nice kitchen and a not completely beautiful,
but dress-upable space. I think it's ~75, with an additional cost
for a liquor license.

I am looking for a venue for an adult birthday party. I've looked at the UCB
Parents Web Site and saw the suggestions for restaurants, but I am looking
for a place where we would be able to have a band and catered food. We're
hoping to do this in either December or January and would prefer to do this
in Oakland or Berkeley, or at least somewhere in the near East Bay. Our
price range for the rental is about $500-900, more if there's an inclusive
price. Nothing too fancy, but nice and large enough for 50-75 people. Thanks
for your help.
Nicole
Oakland Zoo - the Snow Building. I attended a party there once and it was a
great location. They brought in a band and caterers and all worked well.
JaredJo
You might try Preservation Park in downtown Oakland. They have two or three
different sized halls that are very nice. I think they are listed in the
yellow pages
under the City of Oakland.
Olga
There are 3 places I know of to rent thru (I think) East Bay Parks and REc.
One is the Sequoia Lodge, one is Leona Lodge (that may not be the right name)
and there's one more. All 3 are in Oakland in nice places and have kitchens
dance space and parking. Sequoia Lodge is really nice with a big fireplace
and lots of redwood and woodsy. I've been to weddings and birthday parties at
all 3. They seem to be fairly available if you're not terribly choosey about
dates. Have fun, June
Note from Myriam:
Sequoia and Leona Lodge are actually a City of Oakland Property. See
information here:
http://www.oaklandnet.com/recreation/recreation.html
and here:
http://www.oaklandnet.com/recreation/recreation.html
Some ideas and places where I've been, although I don't know any prices at
all
* Sequoia Room in Montclair (frontage room on east side of Hwy 13 between
Park Blvd and Lincoln Ave). Very plain and somewhat secluded, but can
accommodate 50-70 well.
* Brazilian Room in Tilden Park - they may have other rooms as well. Nice
view over the lawn. Nice for wedding too.
* Claremont Hotel, but I don't know if it'll meet your price range.
* Could also try a local resort or golf club.
* Could possibly rent a room at Waterfront Plaza, but I wonder if they allow
bands ?? Would be nice to step out for a breath of fresh air on the marina.
* Does the San Leandro Marina restaurants rent rooms?
* There may be Oakland Park & Rec places to rent.
Good luck!
Tom
the Brazil Room in Tilden Park - size is right for your group. You can use
only one of about six caterers that they allow, but there's some variety.
REntal fees are cheaper for weekdays.
Mary
Recently we held a catered wedding reception, with dancing afterwards, in
the large social
hall at my church. The caterers told us this was a GREAT place (large
kitchen) and that
we should advertise it more. The room has a small stage where a band could
set up,
a fireplace, and tables and chairs for 100+ people. We are on Cutting just
one block
downhill from the Arlington. Mira Vista United Church of Christ. 7075
Cutting Boulevard,
El Cerrito 94530. Phone (510) 234-0110. Usually the large social hall
rents during the day
for $20 per hour, minimum 4 hours, with an additional $50 for the use of
the kitchen, so
the cost is very reasonable.
Bonnie
I do a lot of party planning for work (as such, also for friends!). A
great site I use all the time for party planning is the wedding site
www.herecomestheguide.com. It can help you find other venues if these
don't work for you. I use it all the time! December is going to be a
tough month as most places will be booked with holiday parties. I think
you'll have better luck for January!
Here are my suggestions:
1) Call East Bay Regional Parks - they have several beautiful sites
within the parks that might work including the Brazil Room, which is
fairly expensive. Others are more affordable.
2) Berkeley Yacht Club in the Berkeley Marina is around your price
range I think. Their number is 540-9167.
3) Leona Lodge from City of Oakland is very reasonable at around
$65/hour. It has a very woodsy feel with a huge fireplace and is off
Hwy. 13 in Oakland. The number is 238-3091.
4) Joaquin Miller is a bit more expensive but is very nice also! The
number for that is 482-7870.
Good luck!

Place with a stage for a large party
November 2001
I want to throw a big (50 - 100 people) "congratulations" type party sometime
shortly following the holidays, preferably in January, and I am looking for
creative ideas to make it more fun than just drinking and chit-chatting in a
hall. I would like it to be a party where the guests participate in the fun. My
one idea is that I would like to do a show-plus-roast type thing, so I was
hoping to find a place with a stage or at least an area that could act as a
stage (but this idea could be shelved if it doesn't fit with a larger or better
activity/location). My first idea was the Albatross pub, which would have been
great. The space there is comfortable and homey, and people could have had fun
playing darts / pool / board games rather than just standing around. Problem is
they don't rent out the whole thing or even a large part. Something like that
would be perfect. I am open to kids-included or no-kids, day or evening, and
even outdoors if it comes with a suitable indoor option in case of rain.
Location ideas should be Berkeley or surrounding areas. I went to the UC
Parents website and to Here Comes the Guide.com, both of which have many good
location ideas, but primarily for "hall" type venues. Also - if someone has
experience coordinating a "roast" with skits / stories / songs, your wisdom
would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your ideas.
You might want to try a museum. At the Lawrence Hall of Science there are
numerous rooms/areas that you could use, including an auditorium for the
roast. I also recommend the Alumni House on campus. With the couches and
fireplaces, it feels like a big living room instead as opposed to a hall.
Good luck!
Helena
March 2002
I am looking for a venue of some kind (theater preferable)to
host a fundraiser. This fundraiser includes a night of
speakers and performances that should be great. We have
extreamly well known environmetalists speaking at this
event. We have them booked for the evening of Friday
June 7th. We were planning to use the Little theater
at Berkeley High School but there was a miscommunication
about that.....so now we have a wonderful event and no
place to hold it!! Any suggestions would be greatly
appriciated. It must be June 7th, in the evening, and
in Berkeley( or near by) The venue must hold at very
LEAST 150 people. Cheap is good too!If you have further
questions you can contact me via email. Thank you.
Very much in need,
Sara
Perhaps the main floor of the old club builing (now a hotel) that is just
uphill of the University Art Museum. It is between the Art Museum and the
Cafe at College and Bancroft. I know they have parties and other events
there. It might be worth a try.
How 'bout the Hillside club? May not be Theater-enough like.
How'bout one of the elementary schools? Thousand Oaks has a nice looking
cafeteria-Theater space. Whittier-Berkeley arts Magnet doesn't look so bad
either.
Some churches may have theater space in their community halls.
How 'bout the Berkeley City Club on Durant?
Or- if you must go out of Berkeley - the Vetrans Hall in El Cerrito.
Good luck - hope this brainstorming helps. Let us all know if you find a
good place!
hopefully helpful
An organization I work with recently rented the Rosa
Parks multipurpose room for a forum. It was $12/hour
for the space but custodian time is another $25 or
so/hour. There is also some kind of insurance requirement.
I imagine that other schools have auditorium space as
well. Good luck.

The Downtown Berkeley Public Library has an huge directory of local venues
available for
rent. The reference librarian can help you.

One-year-old's bday party for 100+ people
May 2001
We are planning a big party for our son's 1st birthday, and are looking
for a facility with a big room that can hold about 100+ people, preferably
with a kitchen, that isn't too expensive to rent. I've already checked
the UCB Parents Network Website, but the rooms on that list aren't large
enough. Any recommendations?
Jennifer
I'd like to pitch for a GREAT place for a party (why
am I doing this? Now it will be booked when I want to
rent it again...)
Cafe Eclectica: 527-2344, 1309 Solano Ave.
It used to be Cafe Crayon; now it is run by teens, for
teens during business hours.
There is a long entry hall with booths, perfect for
older kids to play or adults to have an adult
conversation. At the end of the hall is the main
"party space": a big open room with a kitchen, tables
and chairs, games, TV, etc. There is also a very small
outside patio.
I had a party there last year and it was perfect.
Hope this helps!
Lori
Function Rooms in Albany: A friend of mine had her wedding reception
at the Albany community center (I don't know if that's the correct name)--that
pinkish building on Marin Ave in Albany. I don't think it was too costly.
Linda
The Albany Community Center (same building as the Albany Library) is a
great place for functions. 524-9283
http://www.albanyca.org/recreation.html (see "facilities and classes")
Laura
You can rent the entire Habitot Children's Museum in Berkeley any evening after closing,
and every Sunday during the day until Labor Day. It can easily accomodate 100 people
and is perfect be if you are planning on inviting lots of young children. Two hours is $195.
Kathleen
Try El Cerrito! The Community Center on Moser or the Harding School clubhouse.
Info is available at the Community Center office or maybe there is a web site.
HalfDink
The Kensington Community Center is a great place for a party, and not too
expensive compared to other places. It has a great kitchen, a large indoor
room, a large outdoor grill, a meeting ring in back, and a beautiful lawn
area with a view of the bay in front. We had our wedding reception there,
and though the place feels very utilitarian when empty, with a little
imaginative decorating it can be a great space. We got six large tarps that
are paper on one side, and painted fun scenes on them, and hung them along
the sides of the main room, along with some large paper lanterns. For a
kid's party you can do a lot with balloons and streamers. Check it out.
