Private Events at Monticello

Website

Host your next event at one of our world class venues, where history meets modern hospitality. Whether it’s a corporate retreat, meeting, wedding, or social gathering, our unique venues offer breathtaking views, state-of-the-art facilities, and exceptional catering by Constellation Culinary Group.

For over 100 years, Monticello has been maintained and kept open to the public by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation, a private, non-profit organization. The foundation offers individuals and groups the opportunity to rent select spaces for private events.

As a Site of Conscience, we are committed to engaging our guests with a deeper understanding of Monticello’s history as a plantation. Out of respect for the enslaved men, women, and children who lived and labored here, we do not allow private, non-educational events on the West Lawn, Mulberry Row, or elsewhere on the mountaintop.
