Mount Saint Mary's University

Mount Saint Mary’s University offers an unusually broad collection of event settings across its Doheny and Chalon campuses, from historic interiors to lawns, theaters, plazas, and academic gathering spaces. More than 20 rentable areas give planners considerable flexibility in size and atmosphere. At the Doheny campus, the historic mansion includes rooms such as the Great Hall and Pompeian Room for gatherings of around 100, while the Great Lawn can accommodate roughly 500. Rose Hills Theater seats about 350. The Chalon campus adds options such as a Campus Center for around 400, Hannon Theater for about 350, and Hannon Plaza, where elevated views extend across the city toward the Pacific. The campuses provide a mix of architecture, greenery, and institutional spaces rather than one single event-room aesthetic.

On-site catering and parking support private functions, meetings, conferences, weddings, and filming activity across the university grounds. The range of spaces also makes it possible to build a multi-part event, using one area for a ceremony or presentation and another for a reception or meal. Academic and theater spaces can serve structured programs, while lawns and plazas create more open social environments. Because the property includes historic buildings as well as modern campus facilities, events can choose a setting that fits their tone instead of adapting one generic ballroom. Mount Saint Mary’s is particularly useful for organizations or hosts that need scale, multiple rooms, or a campus-like environment with distinctive views and architecture, while still having access to the practical services needed to manage a larger gathering.
