Historic Blenheim - Event Venue

Historic Blenheim

The Historic Blenheim Interpretive Center is a unique, historic facility that will help make your special event—wedding, anniversary party, bar/bat mitzvah —even more special. This venue has historic charm and presence while offering modern amenities for your event. Even something as seemingly pedestrian as a meeting becomes more distinct in this historic setting.

For more reservation information or to set up an appointment to view a venue, contact our team at rentalvenues@fairfaxva.gov. Appointments are highly encouraged to ensure you are able to see the space you are interested in.

Please note that all payments are due 60 days before your rental. If you are renting within 60 days of your rentals date, full payment will be due at the time of rental.

Deadline to submit rental applications for an upcoming month is on the 14th of the month prior. Applications sent after this deadline won't be considered unless they occur during public hours (i.e. applications for a December rental must be submitted by November 14th at the latest). You can submit rental applications up to two years in advance.
