Questions about venues in Washington
- How many venues in Washington publish their capacity?
- 13 of the 20 venues listed here publish a capacity figure on their own pages. Each is the venue's own figure, not a drawn layout, so ask for a floor plan at your guest count.
- What is the largest seated capacity a venue in Washington publishes?
- Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum publishes seating for 850. That is the venue's own figure. Whether a particular room holds that many for your layout is a question for the venue.
- Do venues in Washington say anything about catering?
- 9 of the 20 venues listed here have published something about food and drink that I've read. For the others I haven't read anything yet, so ask whether catering is in-house only and whether you can bring your own.
- What should I ask a venue in Washington before booking?
- Across the 20 venues listed here, the questions these records most often leave open are: usable seated and standing capacity (open on 14), accessible restroom on the event level (open on 13) and amplified-sound cutoff and curfew (open on 13). Ask for those answers in writing before you pay a deposit.
