Museum of the American Revolution

Philadelphia, PA, Pennsylvania

The Museum of the American Revolution will serve as a one-of-a-kind backdrop  within this 118,000 sq ft state-of-the-art unique wedding venue in Old City Philadelphia, offering the following spaces:

LIBERTY HALL

Located on the third floor, Liberty Hall is a beautifully proportioned, handsomely finished, naturally lit, versatile event space that can accommodate a formal dinner for 180, a scholarly panel discussion, a board meeting, a wedding reception and more. The Hall offers striking views in multiple directions, including the façade of the First Bank of the United States, Independence National Historical Park, and historic buildings on Chestnut Street. An open-air terrace provides a dramatic overlook of the Museum’s plaza.

MUSEUM LOBBY

The Museum lobby is the hub for visitor service and orientation. The Lobby’s gracious architecture provides an attractive Philadelphia wedding venue for those attending special events and programs both during and after hours. The ceiling features a graceful vault, creating the distinctive feel of historic masonry construction that is heightened by the use of stone cladding on the walls and floor.

ROTUNDA & GRAND STAIRCASE

The Rotunda and ground floor court serves as the crossroads of the Museum. Visitors pass through the Court to enter the Main Theater, the Special Exhibition Space, the Museum Shop, and the Café. The Grand Staircase is the most distinctive architectural feature of the ground floor and provides a dramatic pathway to the Museum’s exhibition galleries.

MAIN THEATER 

The Main Theater will house the Museum’s signature film – a thought-provoking, stirring and inspiring overview of the American Revolution and its continued relevance. It is ideally suited for after-hour use. The Theater has an expansive, sloped-floor that accommodates 190 people. It is outfitted with three synchronized digital projectors, a surround-sound audio system, and theatrical lighting. 

SPECIAL EXHIBIT GALLERY

The Special Exhibition Gallery will showcase short-term exhibitions. When not in use for this purpose, the space will be available for facility rentals. The 5,000 square foot space has the flexibility to be subdivided to host concurrent event programming.

FOUNDERS BOARDROOM

A state-of-the-art boardroom available for business meetings. You can also transform it into a lounge setting.
