Political galas. Charity fundraisers. Artist receptions. High-powered luncheons. Numerous types of
events are held in the DC area every day, and, lucky for planners, just as much variety exists in the city's meeting venues. Of the
hundreds of historic attractions, museums and unique buildings, a few stand out as being synonymous with the DC
experience.
Ronald Reagan Building&International Trade Center
Located in the heart of downtown DC, the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center was built with the
input of the world’s top event and meeting planners. With breathtaking interiors, unique cuisine and top-notch
professional service, RRBITC is one of DC’s most sought-after venues, hosting clients such as Boeing, the Washington
International Trade Association and the Heritage Foundation.
Union Station
Union Station is the most visited destination in the nation's Capitol with over 32 million visitors a year. Its classic architecture, featuring a white granite facade and oversized columns, was the inspiration for the Lincoln Memorial and Jefferson Memorial as well as the Supreme Court building. With the ability to host any type of event, from Presidential inaugural balls to city-wide expos, Union Station is one of the most recognizable, grand and easily-accessible (it is a train station, after all) locations in the city.
National Museum of Women in the Arts
The National Museum of Women in the Arts is the only one in the world dedicated exclusively to recognizing the contributions of women artists. With four spaces of varying size to choose from, this venue offers elegance and functionality for everything from the largest galas to the most intimate lectures.
National Building Museum
The National Building Museum celebrates, informs and debates the architectural environment and its impact on
society. A fitting location to discuss such topics, the museum itself is one the great American buildings of the
19th century, designed to be a space for Washington's most prestigious functions. Indeed, it has served this
purpose, beginning by hosting former U.S. President Grover Cleveland’s Inaugural Ball in 1885.
