Host an event at the Navy Memorial
PRIVATE EVENTS
The United States Navy Memorial Visitor Center is a state-of-the-art event and meeting space located in the heart of Washington, DC on Pennsylvania Avenue. It is easily accessible for your guests, conveniently located just steps from the metro, and sits in good company across the street from the National Archives and just a few blocks away from the United States Capitol.
As a venue for corporate and individual private events, the Visitor Center offers flexibility in space and layout and has provided an unparalleled experience and backdrop to thousands.
Rent both the Gallery Deck and the Delbert D. Black National Chief's Mess to accommodate up to 300 guests for a standing reception or 120 for a seated dinner.
Each room can also be rented separately — the National Chief's Mess is ideal for Board Meetings and intimate formal gatherings. The Burke Theater can hold up to 230 guests for your training sessions, presentations, or film screenings.
The Navy Memorial has four unique spaces with unlimited layout options:
The Arleigh and Roberta Burke Theatre accommodates a wide range of events, from corporate meetings and presentations to military ceremonies and the latest Hollywood premiere. The theatre seats 222 guests comfortably, each with its own folding desk.
The Gallery Deck is our principal exhibit space and reception area.
The Delbert D. Black National Chiefs’ Mess is adjoined to the Gallery Deck and may be closed for a more intimate affair.
The Asiatic Fleet Room was designed with the feel of a Ward Room for smaller meetings.
