Central Park Place

Central Park Place is a city-owned event venue in downtown Grand Haven, offering a choice of rooms for weddings, business gatherings, performances and private celebrations. Its spaces range from smaller rooms suited to meetings and intimate occasions to a large, adaptable ballroom. The Mackinaw Ballroom can be divided into sections for different layouts and can host up to 240 guests in a banquet arrangement, or more in theatre-style seating. The venue also has the Acacia Theatre, a dedicated auditorium for presentations, talks and performances, and an Atrium Gallery that can be added to selected bookings.

Couples can enquire about ceremony and reception options, including the ballroom, preparation rooms for the wedding party, a dance floor, a mobile bar and access to an enclosed outdoor patio. For business organisers, the venue accommodates board meetings, training sessions, conferences, presentations, workshops and expos. AV equipment and other practical amenities are available to hire, and room layouts can be arranged to suit the event.

Central Park Place does not provide in-house catering, so organisers can choose their own caterer and beverage service. Catering-preparation kitchens are available in the building, along with tableware and other optional hire items. The team can provide information about room availability, event arrangements and tours. Free parking is available nearby, and accessible facilities include lift access and provisions for guests with mobility or hearing needs. With several spaces under one roof and options for both social and professional occasions, the venue gives organisers flexibility to plan an event around their guest numbers and format.
