The Venetian by Iris

The Venetian by Iris is an event venue in downtown Hillsboro, Oregon, set inside a historic former theatre. Its range of spaces gives organisers options for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations, with the ballroom providing a distinctive setting for receptions, banquets, galas, fundraisers and other occasions. Smaller private rooms can suit dinner parties, family celebrations and business gatherings where a more contained space is preferred.

The venue’s character combines the atmosphere of an older Main Street building with rooms adapted for contemporary events. Organisers can discuss how to arrange the spaces for their guest numbers and event format, whether they are planning a seated meal, a reception or a celebration with entertainment. Weddings and other private functions are among the occasions associated with the venue, while its ballroom can also accommodate corporate and community events.

Located in the centre of Hillsboro, the venue offers a local option for planners seeking an indoor setting with historic character. The building has hosted performances as well as private functions, making it suitable for events where a stage or performance-style atmosphere is part of the plan. For current booking details, room configurations and arrangements for food or other services, organisers should contact the present venue operator directly, as management changed in 2026. The Venetian provides a flexible setting for hosts looking to bring guests together in a recognisable downtown location, with spaces that can be considered for both smaller private occasions and larger organised events.
