✦ Orlando, Florida ✦
6,000 square feet, an open vendor policy, and hourly rental from $350. Bring your own caterer, your own DJ, your own everything.
The Room
Most banquet halls in Orlando cap out around 200 guests, and most of the ones that go bigger are attached to a hotel that requires you to use their kitchen. 5959 West is the room in between: a 74 by 81 foot ballroom that seats 300, with no in-house catering contract attached to it.
The floor takes 28 round tables and two estate tables with room left for an 8 by 20 foot stage and a dance floor. Ceilings are high, the lighting is on dimmers, and the whole room is on central air — which matters more in Orlando than anywhere else.
Pricing
A four-hour meeting does not need a twelve-thousand-dollar package. Venue-only rental is priced by the hour so you pay for the room and nothing you did not ask for.

Open Vendor
This is the part that separates us from almost every other hall this size in Orlando. We do not run a kitchen and we do not take a cut of yours.
Any licensed caterer you like. Halal, kosher, Caribbean, Desi, Latin, barbecue, a food truck in the lot — it is your call, and there is no plate fee on top.
DJ, band, photographer, florist, decorator, bar service. No preferred-vendor list, no approval fee, no restrictions on who you hire.
A commercial prep kitchen your caterer can stage and plate from, included with the room at no extra cost.
