Banquet Hall
Columbus, Ohio
An intimate private banquet space in Columbus for seated dinners, receptions, and celebrations. 16 tables, 60 chairs, crystal chandeliers — all included from $525.
Why Choose Blanco
A banquet hall that fits your event — not the other way around
Seated Dinners for 60
16 white rectangular tables and 60 chairs included. Set up banquet-style rounds, long farm tables, or any configuration your event needs.
Any Caterer Welcome
Unlike traditional banquet halls with fixed menus, Blanco lets you bring any caterer — from high-end plated service to your favorite local restaurant. Kitchenette included for food prep.
Elegant, Not Dated
All-white walls, crystal chandeliers, and modern sconces create an upscale atmosphere without the dated carpet-and-wallpaper feel of traditional banquet halls.
No Per-Person Minimums
Pay a flat rental rate — not $93–$110 per person. A 40-person dinner at Blanco costs $525–$2,000 for the venue. At a traditional banquet hall, the same event could run $4,000–$6,000+ just for the room and food minimum.

Book Your Date"Hosted a retirement dinner for 45 people. The space was perfect — elegant enough for the occasion without feeling like an oversized hotel ballroom. We brought our own caterer and set up a beautiful sit-down dinner. The total cost was a fraction of what the banquet halls we looked at were quoting. Highly recommend for smaller banquet events."
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Banquet Halls in Columbus, Ohio — From Intimate to Grand
When Columbus residents search for a banquet hall in Columbus Ohio, they usually picture a large ballroom with in-house catering and a traditional setup. Venues like The Annunciation Banquet Center (500 guests) and The Makoy (300 guests) fit that mold perfectly, and they're excellent choices for large-scale banquet events.
But not every banquet needs 300 seats. Rehearsal dinners, milestone birthdays, retirement celebrations, and corporate team dinners often have 20–60 guests. In these cases, renting a 500-person ballroom means paying for space and catering minimums you'll never use. Blanco Event Center offers an alternative: a private, elegant banquet space for up to 60 guests at a fraction of the cost.
Why Blanco Works as an Intimate Banquet Venue
Blanco isn't a traditional banquet hall — it's a private event space that accommodates seated banquet-style events beautifully. The 16 included tables and 60 chairs set up for formal dinners, and the all-white interior with crystal chandeliers provides an upscale atmosphere without the dated aesthetic of some traditional halls. The open vendor policy means you choose the food, drinks, and service style — whether that's a plated 4-course dinner from a Columbus caterer or a family-style buffet you set up yourself.
