Located on our beautiful student campus of Manatee School for the Arts, our brand new Renaissance Event Center opened in August 2024, and is now available to rent for special events. 

Mondays through Fridays during school hours, our venue serves as the cafeteria and internal events for the students.  We are excited to offer it for rent year-round on Friday nights and all day Saturdays and Sundays to the public in order to support the students throughout the year.

Our 10,000 square foot AV extravaganza event space is versatile and caters to a variety of special events, including weddings, birthdays, holiday parties, bar/bat mitzvahs, graduations parties, quinceañeras, memorials, conferences, trade shows, sport events and more.

Open the doors and get ready to be blown away… equipped with 28 85” wall-to-wall screens serving as digital wallpaper, state-of-the-art audio house system, a prep kitchen and an arcade, we are ready to host your next big event!
