Public restrooms are located to the side of the stage and field area
Elstro Plaza
No Max Capacity
Home of the Richmond Farmers Market, Jack Elstro Plaza is a great facility for your outdoor event. With plenty of parking, outdoor seating, and restrooms, logistically it’s an excellent location. But the plaza also features a splash pad to delight children, a spacious recessed lawn for activities, a stage for entertaining, an outdoor ping pong table (bring your own ball), and a checkerboard (bring your own pieces), all of which takes this facility to the next level. Jack Elstro Plaza is centrally located in downtown Richmond and is the perfect space for your next outdoor event.
Starr Gennett
Maximum: 600 attendees
Starr Gennett Building is centrally located in the heart of Richmond, but it has a wonderful secluded feel. Although the building lacks A/C, the many grated windows let in a pleasant breeze and plenty of sunlight. The building has an industrial feel, while also remaining a blank canvas for your desired theme. The attractions are not just inside, however. Starr Gennett Building is surrounded by plentiful outdoor space with benches, picnic tables, a historical sidewalk, ample parking, and more. Perhaps the greatest attribute of the facility is its rich history, which is reflected in its architecture, location, and ambiance.
