The Domes

Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory, "The Domes"

Mitchell Park Conservatory (The Domes)
524 S. Layton Blvd.

For a memorable event in a picturesque setting, treat your guests to an evening among the waterfalls, flowerbeds and cacti of the Mitchell Park Conservatory. Guests will enjoy the ambiance as pixel-lights give soft accents in the Show Dome, and indirect lighting gives washes of color in the lobby.

For very large events, food and beverage stations may be scattered throughout the domes.

Rental includes use of the Conservatory and lobby area.
(For rental information on the pavilion behind the Domes and next to the lagoon, go to Mitchell Park Pavilion)
