21 Private Party Venues in Calgary

Have better parties

Venues? Why did you include venues on your site Sarah? Because I LIKE them that's why. And I'm not talking about big wedding venues noooooo, I'm talking about exclusive private dining spaces. There are so many hidden gems in Calgary that people NEED to know about.  There's stunning and classy or one of a kind and intimate.  Depending on the vibes you are trying to create, trust me, there's a place for your gathering.  


Note this page is under ongoing construction as I slowly visit and add more venues!  Come back the next time you're booking a birthday party, Christmas party or other private party event and it'll be refreshed with more.

1) Big Fish and Open Range (Marda Loop + Renfrew)

1) Big Fish and Open Range (Marda Loop + Renfrew)

1) Big Fish and Open Range (Marda Loop + Renfrew)

Big Fish & Open Range in Marda Loop offers both their main dining room and upper floor as event spaces for rent. The private bar upstairs has a 40 person capacity. Downstairs is bigger for large bookings for weddings, Christmas events and more! They also have private underground parking,

Capacity: 40+

Minimum spend required: Yes

2) Rodney's Oyster House - The Government Wharf

1) Big Fish and Open Range (Marda Loop + Renfrew)

1) Big Fish and Open Range (Marda Loop + Renfrew)

private dining room rodneys oyster house

Rodney's has a private room on the upper level of their restaurant that comfortably fits 10 people.  This room is free to book and features a large television on one wall. There are also washrooms conveniently right around the corner from the room.   This is a good space for watching the Flames game (as we did!) or a small birthday or corporate gathering.  

Capacity: 10 seated

3) Deane House - The Library

1) Big Fish and Open Range (Marda Loop + Renfrew)

3) Deane House - The Library

private dingin room deane house

Admittedly, I haven't been to Deane House either.  From what I understand it is quite a luxury experience. Known for both its service and excellent cuisine, they hold a number of events (a lot of wedding photos on their site), but I think the best dining area they offer is the Library room.  It feels prestigious.

Capacity: 24 seated/48 standing

Minimum spend required: unknown

6) Hy's Steakhouse - The Alberta Room

3) Deane House - The Library

6) Hy's Steakhouse - The Alberta Room
