The Annex Event Center

The Annex Event Center is a historic event venue in downtown Cañon City, Colorado, offering organisers a distinctive setting for celebrations, banquets and daytime receptions. Its ballroom and dance floor span 5,000 square feet, with space for events of up to 240 people. The restored building dates to 1903 and retains period features including original wood floors, decorative ceilings, detailed millwork, skylights and wrought-iron balconies.

The room is arranged to support different kinds of gatherings. A built-in stage with lighting can accommodate a live performance, speeches or a presentation, while the dance floor and historic bar help create a welcoming setting for an evening celebration. A VIP or bridal loft provides a separate space for guests of honour or wedding parties. The venue’s historic freight elevator is another distinctive feature of the building.

Catering capabilities are available on site, making the space suitable for events that include a meal or reception service.

Its combination of a large ballroom, stage, bar, dance floor and catering facilities gives planners a range of useful elements in one central Cañon City location.
