The historic Spanish Ballroom is Glen Echo Park's largest rental space. It can seat 450 guests, including space for dancing. With its high ceiling and spacious dance floor, it’s a perfect space for corporate events, school events, weddings and galas. With its gorgeous Art Deco design, it makes any event something to remember. This beautifully restored 1933 Mediterranean style Art Deco building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and many of the great bands of the Swing era played here.
