McGavick Conference Center

McGavick Conference Center is a modern conference and event facility on the campus of Clover Park Technical College in Lakewood, Washington, built around a 10,709-square-foot ballroom that divides into three smaller sections for events ranging from intimate gatherings to large groups of up to 1,200 guests. An adjoining atrium and lobby space offers views of Mt. Rainier, giving receptions and cocktail hours a scenic backdrop alongside the flexibility of the main ballroom. Beyond the ballroom, the center includes a boardroom seating up to 15 and a Rotunda space suited to smaller holiday parties, fundraisers, seminars, and luncheons, accommodating up to 200 guests theater-style or 100 banquet-style. Every rental includes event setup, tables and chairs, Wi-Fi, and access to a catering kitchen available in conjunction with the ballroom. The center's event services team, with a combined 15 years of experience, supports clients through pre-event consulting, on-site walk-throughs, and vendor coordination, and the venue provides more than 500 free parking spaces for attendees.
