Whether you're planning a work outing, a wedding party, or a private event, HAVA gives you plenty of options to personalize your venue and make your idea a reality. Our venue has a one-of-a-kind environment that allows you to design the ideal celebration for your special occasion. John Stefanon of JFS Design Studio, a well-known interior designer, designed the interior of HAVA Lounge. HAVA Lounge's design elements were influenced by a significant attention to history and emotion. Originally intended to serve as the theater's ladies lounge and orchestra area, this stunning space required subtle elegance reminiscent of the era. The glamorized cues of HAVA Lounge are visible from the moment you walk in, with its "Victorian Chic" décor. Bold dramatic declarations of shapes and patterns, balanced and juxtaposed in Jing-Jang form, bring a unique vibe to this historic Boston jewel. As you move from the Main Lounge to the Back Lounge, the HAVA Lounge's mood is elevated, and a more surreal style is introduced to what used to be the orchestra pit area. The theme of "moths driven to a flame" called for dim lighting and components that would transport consumers to a pleasant summer night on Shanghai's streets – or to a faraway fantasy locale. Both lounges were designed to generate an exciting sense of motion within time and fantasy. We provide a number of customizable options, including as DJs, catering, video and audio, security, bar and servers (for Age Appropriate Events), and more, to help you create a one-of-a-kind, unforgettable event for up to 380 people.

A Remarkable Achievement in the World of Theater Restored to its Stunning Original Flourishing State. In 1927, when vaudeville circuit palaces were at the height of their evolution, the Citizens Bank Opera House was one of the best examples of this type of venue that could be found everywhere. Theatrical productions from all across the world can be seen here, many of which have won prestigious awards. Since it was brought back to its former glory, the Opera House has been the source of unforgettable moments for each and every one of our visitors. The entire theater, the stage, or any one of our many beautiful event spaces are available for booking for parties ranging in size from 20 to 2,600 people. When it initially opened its doors in 1928, the Boston Opera House was known as the B.F. Keith Memorial Theater. Thomas White Lamb, who was considered to be one of the most accomplished theater architects of his era, was responsible for the luxurious movie theater's architecture, which was a fusion of the French and Italian styles. Late in 2004, following a number of transitions in ownership, the Boston Opera House underwent an extensive period of restoration and renovation in order to meet the requirements of large Broadway touring plays. The theater has a capacity of 2600 people, and in addition to hosting regular performances by the Boston Ballet and Broadway productions, it is also open for pre-show use and private functions. Please get in touch with us if you are interested in holding your event at the Boston Opera House or any of the other venues that are affiliated with our company.
