All venue rentals include inventory of banquet tables and chairs, on-site staff member during event, simple house sound and lighting, and secured Wi-Fi. We also work with a variety of caterers and other preferred vendors that can create the perfect wedding for you.

Osberg Great Hall

Clad in hemlock and laced with pendant lights, the Museum's Osberg Great Hall features over 4,200 square feet of acoustically-tuned multipurpose space. Built into the west wall is a 16:9 rear-projection screen with state-of-the-art sound system. The back of the auditorium is designed with a sliding glass wall running the full length of the eastern elevation, and provides a spectacular vista of the Museum's 3,000-square-foot Sun Terrace.

Fjord Hall

The Museum is designed around a linear Fjord Hall that weaves together stories of homeland and the Nordic American experience. Over 280 feet long, this space offers a unique experience for guests, including a PA system, dramatic lighting and one of a kind art object installations.

Fisherman's Sun Terrace

The Fisherman's Sun Terrace along the southern elevation of the building provides a modern exterior setting for summer parties and events. The space can accommodate a 40x60-foot tent.

The Neilsen Lounge on the third floor of the Museum offers guests the chance to host intimate events while enjoying some of the most iconic vistas in Seattle. This room includes a spacious deck overlooking our Fisherman's Sun Terrace with views of the working waterfront and western skyline—a perfect addition to any wedding.
