Cathedral of St. John the Divine

The Cathedral welcomes inquiries about use of its capacious and dramatic spaces for corporate and not-for-profit events and facility rentals. While the Cathedral primarily serves its diverse communities, its history, architecture, and capability to seat more guests than many Broadway theaters make it a highly desirable New York City event and performance venue, with the capacity to accommodate more than 800 guests for seated dinners and up to 2,500 for receptions. When not in use for its own programming, the Cathedral is pleased to consider requests for public and private events. The Cathedral also offers multiple programs for families interested in holding children’s parties on the grounds. Please visit the Families & Youth section to learn more about Medieval Birthdays and ACT Divine Parties.
