It’s Party Time At Dallas Heritage Village!


If you’re looking for a unique venue to host a private party, anniversary dinner or luncheon, Dallas Heritage Village may be the place for you! Where else can you combine the ambiance of a park setting, a stunning view of the Dallas skyline and Texas history? With 5 rental buildings and several outdoor locations, the party combinations are endless. Consider a Texas theme birthday in The Main Street Saloon or a 50th wedding anniversary in the very elegant and newly renovated Park Cities Heritage House. What about a fun Texas theme baby shower in the Renner School? On this page you will find several suggestions to help you plan your next private party.

Don't forget, Dallas Heritage Village offers great birthday packages for kids! You have lots of choices for themed, hands-on parties such as the Texas Ranger Party, The Pioneer Party, The Pottery Party, The Tipi Party or the Victorian Tea Party. Whether the kids are making pottery or taking part in an old fashioned bank robbery, you just can't beat a birthday party at the museum. Parties can include favor bags and more! See our birthday party packages for kids or contact our Program Manager!

Since the closing of the Brent Place Restaurant, Dallas Heritage Village now reserves the Park Cities Heritage House two days per week for ladies lunch groups, organizations and clubs. You are able to enjoy the formal dining room, as well as the new Skyline Dining Room. A rate sheet for meetings and luncheons can be found at the bottom of the page. Please click on the links below to download. We also have a special new offering on Sundays for wedding and baby showers. There's always a Texas size party at Dallas Heritage Village!

Let’s Do Lunch, then Shop!


Since the closing of the Brent Place Restaurant, Dallas Heritage Village has created a new offering for small lunch and tour groups. For groups of 20 or more, we now offer a very affordable private luncheon space in the Park Cities Heritage House. With 2 sittings from 11:30am-1pm and 1:30-3pm, we are able to accommodate up to 4 private lunch groups on both Wednesdays and Fridays. For $10 per person (min 20) the groups gets admission to the museum, a private dining floor for 1 ½ hours, parking and 10% off gift certificates to shop in the Museum Gift Store. Your lunch is extra and there are no food and beverage minimums. You can order box lunches, delivery or fully catered lunch buffets through one of our approved caterers. Where else can you enjoy a lovely ladies day out with lunch, for less than $20 per person?

It's Tea Time


Take advantage of our 1:30pm time slot in the Park Cities Heritage House for a ladies afternoon tea. We have several caterers on our approved list that can coordinate an authentic English tea for groups of 20 or more. The top floor of the Park Cities Heritage House has 2 private dining rooms and with adjoining Park Cities Parlor, can easily accommodate 30 or more guests. Afterwards, enjoy shopping in our Museum Store or coordinate your tea after a private tour of the Sullivan and Millermore homes. Docents for groups of 20 or less are $25 per hour. For more information, contact the Director of Sales.




Park Cities Luncheons


Rent the entire Park Cities Heritage House for a luncheon or meeting space from 12-4pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays for only $350. This rate can accommodate up to 75 guests who have access to all 10 rooms and the winding front porch. This is a very affordable way to host an association luncheon, mixer or committee meeting. All guests get admission to the museum, parking and 10% off gift certificates to shop in the Museum Gift Store. To reserve the house for your next lunch event, please contact the Director of Sales.

Bridal & Baby Showers


We now offer both the Park Cities Heritage House and the Renner School on Sundays (subject to availability due to museum programs) for baby and bridal showers. For $10 per person (party minimum of 25), you can have access to either the Park Cities Heritage House (both floors) or the Renner School (both floors). Guests get admission to the museum, parking and 10% off gift certificates to shop at the Museum Store after the gift swapping! Lunch and refreshments are extra and are available through our list of approved caterers. Your lunch can be fully catered or just prepared for drop off. Never before, have either of these facilities been so affordably priced for Sunday afternoon events. Custom invitations, balloons, tour guides and chalkboard signs are available through our sales office as rental enhancements to make your party special! Contact the Director of Sales to make a reservation.

Birthday Parties Texas Style


The new Main Street Saloon is the perfect location for a Texas theme party. No decorations needed! This period 1901 saloon is adorned with period artifacts, an antique bar, a funky old piano and a huge stuffed grizzly bear named “Choctaw Jack”! This intimate space is perfect for a private party of 40 (inside) with the ability to handle up to 75 with the use of the outside porch and Main Street. If the party gets even larger, you can rent the Main Street Stage for your band or DJ for only $250. Dance the night away under the stars with the Dallas skyline as your back drop. The Main Street Saloon is so unique; your guests will be talking about the party for weeks. Let Choctaw Jack be your host!

Holiday Parties with Panache


Keep Dallas Heritage Village in mind when planning your annual holiday party. The Pavilion, Park Cities Heritage House, Main Street Saloon and Renner School are all available for rentals. You may want to consider hosting your party during Candlelight, Dallas Heritage Village’s annual holiday event. By hosting your “party within a party”, guests will enjoy a magical winter experience under the stars. Holiday parties book quickly at Dallas Heritage Village. Contact the Director of Sales today! This year, we will be offering a limited number of hospitality tents during Candlelight 2004.

Anniversary Dinners


A special anniversary requires a special location. Treat yourself or your parents to a milestone anniversary party to remember! Large formal dinners with a band and dance floor can be accommodated in the Pavilion. An elegant, family dinner is tastefully done in the Park Cities Heritage House. Consider our Texas Main Street package for a combination indoor-outdoor dinner event with a tent. For a silver or gold anniversary, your guests will appreciate the emphasis on Texas history. Private docents can be hired to tour guests and a surrey can be rented to take guests around the museum under the stars. Memories are made at Dallas Heritage Village. Contact the Director of Sales for more information.
