Anniversary & Retirement Party Venue in Rome, GA

A 25th, a 50th, or the last day of a long career deserves more than a back room somewhere. The Meeting Room is a bright downtown space for the toasts and the stories, small enough to feel personal, with the slideshow handled.

A milestone worth marking

Honor the years in one warm room

Some moments earn a proper gathering: a couple reaching a golden anniversary, or a colleague clocking out for the last time after decades on the job. The Meeting Room at River Arts Venue gives you an inviting room in downtown Rome where the people who matter can raise a glass, swap favorite stories, and make the night feel like the milestone it is.

Bright and open on the main floor, the Meeting Room holds up to 50 for a close, personal celebration, with a wall TV for a slideshow of the years. When the guest list grows to a whole department or several generations of family, the whole building brings in the Big Room, which steps up to 200 with a full kitchen for catering and the upstairs Loft included. Weekday retirement send-offs are easy to arrange: the Meeting Room books by the hour, so you can gather the team without taking a whole evening.

Anniversary & retirement FAQs

What size party can you host for an anniversary or retirement?

The Meeting Room is ideal for an intimate gathering of up to 50: close family or a tight-knit team. When you're inviting a whole department or extended family, the whole building brings in the Big Room, which opens up to 200 and includes the upstairs Loft.

Can we play a slideshow of the years?

Yes. The Meeting Room has a wall-mounted TV that's perfect for a slideshow of photos from a long marriage or a long career, or a short video tribute from coworkers, family, and friends.

Is there a kitchen, and can we bring catering?

The Meeting Room doesn't have its own kitchen, but catering is welcome: bring food, cake, and drinks ready to serve. For a meal cooked on site, book the whole building instead, which comes with the Big Room's full kitchen and the upstairs Loft.

Can we book by the hour instead of all day?

Yes. The Meeting Room books by the hour with a three-hour minimum, so you reserve just the window you need for the toasts, the dinner, and the celebration. Check live availability and request your date online.

Do you have a good option for a weekday retirement send-off?

Yes. A weekday afternoon send-off fits the Meeting Room nicely: book it by the hour and gather the team during or just after the workday before someone heads into retirement.

Can we decorate and set up a memory table?

Absolutely. Your booked time is yours to decorate — banners, photos, awards, and a memory table of years gone by are all welcome, and the room is yours to set up the way you'd like before guests arrive.
