Children's Museum of Pittsburgh

Set on Pittsburgh's North Side in Allegheny Square, the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh offers a 27,400-square-foot campus of interactive exhibits and event-ready spaces for weddings, galas, corporate gatherings, and celebrations. Renting the museum gives guests private access to its exhibits and installations, with options ranging from a full-museum buyout for up to 1,000 guests to smaller, more intimate rooms. The Big Red Room is the museum's most formal venue, with a marble interior and award-winning lighting suited to seated banquets and receptions. The Studio and Backyard pairs an artistic indoor space, where guests can try silkscreen printing, with an outdoor backyard featuring a swing set and stone artifacts, making it a favorite for ceremonies and casual receptions alike. Smaller meeting spaces, including the Anne V. Lewis Board Room and museum classrooms, accommodate luncheons, trainings, and business meetings. The museum's in-house Special Events Manager coordinates reservations and tours, and clients select catering from the museum's list of preferred caterers. Complimentary parking is available in the museum's 160-space lot, and qualified nonprofit organizations receive a discount on rentals.
