Outdoor Event Space at the Presidio

No matter the time of year, there’s always a reason to gather and celebrate outside in the Presidio. And thanks to the Presidio’s exceptional location in the heart of a national park site, you’ll find some of the Bay Area’s best outdoor party venues in the park. Whether you’re planning an outdoor wedding, birthday party, family reunion, networking meet-up, or company picnic, the Presidio boasts outdoor event spaces that offer iconic San Francisco views, natural settings, and some of the best places to dance under the stars.

The park’s outdoor party venues offer an array of options that include unique, historic details – the Spanish Revival courtyard and balcony of the Golden Gate Club, the generous lawns with panoramic views of the San Francisco skyline at the Log Cabin, the manicured greens surrounded by forests at the Presidio Golf Course, and the Presidio Officers’ Club’s Hardie Courtyard, a serene, wind-protected spot with fresh air and lush, forest views.

You can’t get more outside than celebrating on one of the many lawn areas found in the Presidio. From the Main Post Lawns to Presidio Tunnel Tops Meadows, these large and inviting spaces are the perfect outdoor adventures in the park. The lawns can accommodate everything from small-group gatherings to 3,000-person festivals and whatever you dream up in-between.
