Palladio Banquet Hall hosts weddings, quinceañeras, galas, conferences and company banquets for up to 500 guests in a 7,000 sq ft ballroom. The hall stands at 1018 East Colorado Street in Glendale, California, and works with clients across Los Angeles County, with its own kitchen and an events team that follows each booking from first planning to the night itself.
Seminars and company events
For businesses, the hall lists conferences, seminars, company celebrations, award ceremonies, networking evenings, corporate banquets, business meetings and fundraising galas. The ballroom can be set in several layouts, from rows facing the stage for a keynote to round tables for a dinner. An LED video wall, an entertainment stage, a lighting system and free Wi-Fi cover presentations, award nights and live entertainment. Event planners help from the early stages, including the choice of outside vendors and extra rentals. Catering for a business day can run from coffee breaks to buffets and seated dinners, so a single booking can cover a daytime program and an evening reception.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are the hall's main activity. The all-inclusive package covers a cocktail hour with hors d'oeuvres, table appetizers, salads, main courses, dessert and late-night snacks, along with serving staff, a custom bar, tables and chairs, satin linens, china, glassware and silverware. A floor manager, service staff and venue security work the event, and bridal rooms give the couple a private space during the evening. The same format serves quinceañeras, engagement parties, bar and bat mitzvahs, anniversaries, birthdays, baby and bridal showers, graduations and holiday parties.
Rooms and capacities
The venue is one main ballroom of 7,000 sq ft with a spacious foyer for welcome drinks and the cocktail hour. It holds up to 500 guests. The floor is white marble tile with room for dancing, and chandeliers hang over the tables. Lighting, layout, decor and color schemes are adjusted to each event, and the stage serves speeches, bands and DJs. The hall gives seated and standing figures by layout on request.
Catering
Catering is handled by the hall's culinary team. Service styles include family style with shared platters, multi-course table service, buffets and cocktail receptions with hors d'oeuvres and canapés. Menus range from local Californian flavors to international dishes and are adapted to dietary requirements. The hall also prepares take-out catering for gatherings held elsewhere.
Getting there
Glendale sits just north of downtown Los Angeles, close to the Ventura Freeway and the Golden State Freeway. Guests arrive by car and use the valet service included in the packages. Hollywood Burbank Airport is the nearest airport, and the Glendale Transportation Center has Metrolink and Amtrak trains. Large groups staying in hotels in Glendale, Burbank or downtown Los Angeles can plan a shuttle for the evening.
