Dallas Meeting Space

Once a major hub and Dallas meeting place for farming and industrial goods, leisure and business travel, and one of the largest points of exchange in the Southwest, Union Station is still a thriving center of activity in the heart of downtown Dallas. This working train station boasts not only a convergence of different train lines (DART Rail, Amtrak, Trinity Railway Express), but also allows underground access to half of downtown, including the Hyatt Regency Dallas hotel, Reunion Tower (or that famously lit ball in the Dallas skyline), the Dallas Convention Center, and some of the city's most famous sites such as the Sixth Floor Museum and the grassy knoll.

Built in 1916 in the acclaimed Beaux Arts Classicism style, Union Station underwent a massive $23 million renovation in 2008 and has since been painstakingly restored to its former glory. Beginning with colossal 48-foot ceilings in the Grand Hall, Union Station affords visitors the chance to admire a variety of downtown architecture thanks to its huge arched windows that span an entire wall.

A Dallas event planner favorite for large, lavish affairs such as weddings, launch parties, and political events, Union Station offers versatile floor plans for gatherings of 10 to 850 guests, not to mention an awesome backdrop to any photo op.

Internationally renowned Wolfgang Puck Catering is the exclusive Dallas caterer for Union Station. Whether your event requires elegant cuisine for 10 or 2,000 diners, Puck's trained chefs prepare all items "a la minute" with fresh, high quality ingredients. Incidentally, Wolfgang's newest Dallas restaurant, Five Sixty, is located at the top of Reunion Tower, which offers a rotating 360-degree view of Dallas and is only a quick walk from Union Station via the climate-controlled tunnel.
