WEDDINGS & PRIVATE EVENTS AT THE PARTHENON
A Unique And Historic Place For Your Event
Music City is blessed to have the iconic Parthenon as a must-see attraction for all visitors. The building is an elegant space to host your next private event with room for up to 225 seated guests or 500 for a mix and mingle event. It is perfect for weddings, parties, and receptions — there is no other place like it in the Western Hemisphere. Also, The Parthenon houses a museum with rotating contemporary exhibits plus a permanent collection. Its Naos room boasts a stunning 42 ft. golden statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war, and the Treasury features casts of the original Parthenon.
