Rentals Freeze
As of Friday, July 19, 2019 we will begin the 2020 Request for Proposals (RFP) process for the social dance program at Glen Echo Park. During this time, we will be scheduling all dance events that will take place in the park in 2020. No rental events may be scheduled or booked for 2020 while the dance calendar is being set. Instead, anyone interested in renting in 2020 may be placed on a waiting list for up to two dates (potential availability for 2020 dates can be requested; see phone number and email address below). The order of the waiting list is first come, first served. There is no obligation or deposit required to be on the waiting list. However, being placed on the list does not guarantee a date, because it is possible the date(s) selected may be booked for a dance during the RFP process. For more information, contact the Events & Venue Manager at ldoyle@glenechopark.org.
Please be aware, the following dates in 2020 have already been booked and will NOT be available (all Saturdays in April, May, June, September, and October have been booked; we have a limited number of Saturdays in July and August):
April 4, 11, 16, 17, 18, 19, 25 May 1, 2, 9, 16, 23, 24, 29, 30, 31 June 6, 13, 20, 27 July 31 August 1, 2, 29 September 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 19, 26, 27 October 17, 31
At Glen Echo Park you'll find the perfect venue for any event, including weddings, corporate picnics, bar/bat mitzvahs, children’s birthday parties, and more!
Historic Glen Echo Park is the perfect year-round setting for any event -- from traditional, elegant affairs to fun and whimsical birthday parties and weddings playing off the Art Deco-inspired architecture of this unique National Park.
For individuals or businesses seeking a unique, historic and inspiring venue, Glen Echo Park will make your special event a memorable one for you and your guests.
If you are interested in renting one of our spaces, there are two ways to get started: 1) Submit a Rental Inquiry Form to our Rentals Associate with dates that you are interested in. 2) Call or email for more information about the spaces and availability. Once we have confirmed availability, we will set up a tour of the space and answer any additional questions you may have. We can then place a 2-week courtesy hold on the space. During this time the Rentals Associate will develop a rental contract. Once the contract is signed and returned, you will be ready to hold your event.
Due to our schedule, site visits for potential clients, and walk throughs for booked clients can not be scheduled on Sundays or Mondays. As most Saturdays are booked with events requiring our attention, we have extremely limited availabiliity on Saturdays. During the week, site visits and walk throughs are based on our availabiity, and typically may not begin after 5:00 pm.
