Venues & Event Spaces near Altadena, CA

“We hosted my wife’s milestone birthday here, and it was fantastic from start to finish! Only rented the outdoor space and it had the perfect mix of warmth and energy on a beautiful Socal evening. The staff went above and beyond, staying attentive without being intrusive. I had DJ, food, dessert vendors and 70-ish guests so plenty of space. The music setup worked perfectly, and the lighting added a great vibe once the party got going. Everyone raved on how fun the night was! We left feeling grateful so support this awesome community in Altadena and the venue!”

“Wow so sad. Just found out the country club is gone. We got married here in the mid 2000’s. It was a beautiful venue, just wonderful. Very very sad. I hope they rebuild. Beauty from ashes. Best wishes.”

“Lai Lai is such a FIND. The ballroom is spacious, clean, and well-maintained. The rotation of instructors is incredibly experienced, each bringing their own strengths in style and technique. It's a sweet, welcoming community. I highly recommend Lai Lai if you want to learn ballroom from the best.”

“Charming Victorian house turned B\&B with beautiful period decor. Each room has its own vibe — I stayed in the Rose Room with a clawfoot tub. The breakfast was homemade and better than most cafés. Hosts were warm and attentive but never intrusive. Peaceful, historic neighborhood. A total gem if you like unique stays”

“2/21/26 - My mother’s milestone 75th birthday was held here. I can confidently say it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the elegant decor and the warm, inviting ambiance. The hall is beautifully appointed, with tasteful lighting and a spacious layout that accommodated our large group.

I personally met Teddy, the owner, and he was genuinely friendly and addressed all my questions whether it was prior to booking the event and also on the day of the event. His staff was outstanding! They were all very professional and clear on the details of everything from setting the tables to serving food and drinks.

The food was another highlight of the night. Each dish was delicious and served hot and fresh. Our guests were thoroughly impressed with the variety and quality of the menu options.

What truly set Fleur de Lis Banquet Hall was their attention to detail and dedication to creating a memorable experience. I highly recommend this venue for any of your party needs.
Thanks again Teddy and your staff for making our mom’s milestone birthday unforgettable!”

“We used Maxwell House Pasadena for our wedding, and it was absolutely perfect! The staff went above and beyond, the space is beautiful and welcoming, and everything ran smoothly. Our guests loved the cozy, stylish atmosphere. Highly recommend!”

“Had a free night and were looking for something fun to do. Found a comedy night going down at The Glendale Room which was like 2 blocks away from the hotel. PERF! AND $5 a ticket!?! Can't beat that with a stick!! Such a fun cozy spot! Saw a show called Stuffed cabbage stand up with up and coming comedians. They were all fantastic!!”

“We attended a family wedding here which was absolutely beautiful. They were married in the outdoor courtyard and cocktail hour was in the main lobby. We also enjoyed dinner and dancing in the large ballroom.”

“I had my wedding here and I would just like to say that this is the best and most cozy wedding venue ever! The whole night was beautiful and I wish it never ended! Sam was the best guy as he helped us so much along the process and extremely helpful that night. The customer service was also out of this world! I was surprised how attentive all the waiters and waitresses were throughout the whole night. 15/10 would recommend!!”

“As a wedding planner, we were so happy to have had such a wonderful experience working at the La Cañada Thursday Club! From the very beginning, Ani was so helpful and accommodating. Our couple’s busy schedules meant planning meetings often had to happen later in the evening, and Ani was always so gracious and flexible to make it work. Throughout the process, she was willing to do whatever she could to make things easier for both our clients and us as vendors.

On the wedding day, when we ran into a few challenges with other vendors, Ani & Jose partnered with us and assisted with such kindness and flexibility, which made a huge difference for us. It was clear that her heart was always in the right place. They genuinely wanted the best for the couple, and it showed in everything they did. Working with the La Canada thursday club team was such a joy. Thank you Ani for truly going above and beyond.

I would wholeheartedly recommend the La Cañada Thursday Club to anyone looking for not just a beautiful venue, but also a team that truly cares and will go the extra mile!”

“We had the great pleasure of having our wedding at The Revery, and it was beyond perfect. The warehouse vibe and mix of large indoor and outdoor spaces allowed us to get really creative with our plans. The way the sun hits is truly magnificent and makes for amazing photos, but is even better in person. Also, working with Monica was a joy. She’s extremely helpful and responsive, and was keen on helping in all the specifics of our wedding. If an open, blank canvas style space is the vibe you're after whether a wedding or photo shoot or other event, definitely check out The Revery.”

“It is spacious and has multiple entrances, making it easy to get in and out.Very comfortable. It's a beautiful place. There is a parking lot right across the street, but I'm not sure how much it is. However, it seemed a bit crowded due to the large number of event crowds. If you don’t mind walking about a blockParking at E Green St, Pasadena, CA 91101 is $12 per day. It's a bit disappointing that there is no discount on parking.”

“We had our wedding here, and I can honestly say it was everything we dreamed of and more. From day one, the team was so responsive, every message, every question, every little detail, they were on it right away. Planning a wedding for over 300 guests sounded impossible at first, but they made it feel effortless. Every part of the process was smooth, organized, and actually enjoyable.

And the food… oh my goodness, the food! There was such an incredible variety every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about it. The appetizers were perfect, the main courses were delicious, and the ice cream was out of this world. It wasn’t just good wedding food it was genuinely amazing food that people still talk about weeks later.

The night itself was pure magic. The space looked stunning, everything flowed perfectly, and we truly got to enjoy our night without a single worry. To Rafael and the entire team: thank you for making the biggest day of our lives feel so easy, so beautiful, and so full of love. We’ll never forget it. ?”

“1st time here. No complaints people were very nice, comedy was good. Food was okay for what I had chicken and a salad.(other said food was trash here) Water price was crazy work but to be expected in that atmosphere..”

“Went to the Jack Scott congratulation event sponsored by the Pasadena City College Foundation. Spectacular. Beautifully organized, delicious hors d’ouevres, sound system and stage set up excellent. A wonderful event. Loved the new renovations. A great club. A great city.”

“I listened to a movie of Ryuichi Sakamoto's performance here, it was a perfect night. The service staff here are very professional. I lost a hat here. After contacting them, the very professional staff found my hat and helped me leave it in the guard room. I was really touched! thank you all!”

“I think 4 star is more proper because it is a really small place. Literally it doesn’t cost 10 mins to finish the visit.

However, the time I entered in, the fountain in the center of all greenery just hit my heart. All the ethereal feeling could easily catches my soul. I had a peaceful time with nature mom again even though it was just a short-time touch. Nature mom, Only in your arms I feel such ecstasy.”

“The Service: The box office is located on 2nd St. The staffs are friendly.

The Theater: Very well maintained. It's a small theater so every seat is a good seat. There is cute little bar inside the building. There is a seating area.

The Parking: Parking structure (fee). The parking lot is connected to the theater.”

“NOOR was not only perfect for our wedding size, the staff and team (especially Robert) were incredibly thoughtful, kind, and helpful. I wish more venues had this level of transparency with cost. Everything was incredibly easy for us to book, customize, and adjust. We just had our dream wedding and our guests keep talking about how much they loved the space and food! Thank you so much!

Update: One major item I forgot to mention; this venue was near the site of the LA fires in Jan 2025. The amount of work the Noor team did to support the impacted local community left me so reassured that this was the ideal place to be married. Nothing feels better than knowing you are supporting a business that supports others. Thank you Noor team for all you've done for so many couples and the LA community!”

“Fun place for a night out with friends or family. They can accommodate for large groups with 32 bowling lanes. They serve small appetizers, have a boba and bar area, pool table and some arcade/claw machines.
The are multi-stall restrooms, clean and are handicap accessible.
There's plenty of shared lot parking.

Note: they charge $1+ for a pitcher of ice water.”

“It's a great place to find a class, workshop, or exhibition that share the narratives of so many Latino@s in LA. They provide community space and offer free or low-cost programs for LA residents to share and preserve our roots through arte and stories. This has also been the home of LatinaFest for 6 years and is a blast to attend in the right weather. The parking is a bummer but if you can find all-day parking there is so much to enjoy and discover. It's in the heart of LA across from Placita Olvera, near Chinatown, near Grand Station, and even close to Los Feliz Flea at Vintageland.”

“Arcave Room is an amazing kids’ birthday party place! The indoor arcade setup kept the kids entertained for hours with unlimited gameplay, and the retro games were a hit with both kids and adults. The staff took care of everything, from setup to cleanup, and the dedicated party host made sure everyone had a great time. If you’re looking for the perfect indoor venue for a kids’ birthday party, Arcave Room is the place to go!”

“Attended a fundraiser, luncheon, and silent auction, boutique, for The Carmenlite Nuns. It was a very nice venue for this event.
All staff were wonderful, very gracious and attentive. Will return. Was a great day.”

“Family event, wedding, service was a little bit slow but food was great fresh, it was a hospitable and friendly environment. Some of the valet guys need some lessons in courtesy, and $18 for the service isn't exactly appealing either”

“came here for LindyGroove on a Thu & loved it - setting fits so nicely for a dance style from the 20s yet I appreciated the dress was so casual. Such a welcoming group to out of towners!”

“Here's my overdue review regarding the party hosting experience. Spoiler alert: amazing all around (honestly just do yourself a favor and book your party here asap!)

Let me start by saying I'm not one who loves hosting...let alone a big party The process seemed especially daunting with my kids' bdays 2 weeks apart. But Playlab made the process so easy planning my 1 year old's party. I went back and forth hosting one but have zero regrets doing it especially with how wonderful it played out start to finish. Guests also commented on what a perfect venue it was + how nice the staff treated everyone.

- Space: the venue alone has enough activities to keep kids engaged both indoors and outdoors. They also offer to connect you with unique hired entertainment options (e.g. balloon animals, petting zoo). Love the variety of toys/play structures to accommodate a wide age range. Easy street parking. Didn't feel too crowded even at max capacity.

- Included/rental items: this was so perfect to minimize stuff to transport/buy - from included tables/chairs/fridge/freezer to fairly priced serving ware/decor/ice/drinks...they really thought out everything to make it easier on busy parents

- Staff/communication: Jason and Christian were incredibly patient and helpful setting up decor, making sure things ran smoothly, and just being reliable experts to lean on. Having prior planning input + assistance day of saved me so much time and energy.

- Food/Drinks: Appreciated having the freedom to pick our own catering/BYOB option without an additional fee. Overall there's so much freedom to be as minimal or add on as much as you need (and without any added pressure or judgement).

They really built a great party planning system to meet your needs at a transparent, reasonable rate.

I knew my kids would love celebrating here given how much fun they love visiting. The sweet surprise was witnessing first time guests + their parents having a blast. We received so much positive input which helped validate our decision to celebrate extra special :)”

“Celebrated my daughter's 21st Birthday and had a great time! The space was perfect for our guests and still had lots of room for the private vendors that we hired that night. I read some reviews just now about this venue and majority mentioned about them liking the natural light during the day. Ours was a night event and I cannot emphasize how nice the photos came out when our photographer took pictures of our guests in the alley and against the red brick wall outside! It was CLASSIC! Venue was clean and staff were very helpful. I wished the response level was quicker when I had questions during the planning stages but I'll still give Whimsy a 5 star because that is more on me - being in the sales/corporate business, I need to respond ASAP or lose the deal type of thing. I wished they had a branch closer to where I live but either way, I will consider booking with them again in the future. Thank you Whimsy!”

“My friend is a member and invited me to a round of golf and it was a spectacular course.

As an amateur enthusiast golfer, It was a very challenging course with excellent views and the greens were well maintained. The golf carts were great, even has Bluetooth enabled to pair your phone and play music through the golf carts speakers which is a nice touch. The navigation was also clutch. Definitely a course for golf lovers.

Customer service was excellent overall and we really enjoyed a day of golfing and capped it off with lunch at their club house restaurant. Delicious food overall and a great way to end a long day of swing clubs.

I’d definitely come back again and consider a membership and the long future.”

“Well staffed professional and friendly. Keeps the tradition of the old school LA private club elegance without pretension. Views of downtown from the patio would make any movies setting.”

“Very nice course, wish I had time to do the full 18 but the front 9 provided a very good challenge as a beginner. The staff and service was absolutely amazing. I will definitely keep coming back here.”
