At the center of any special occasion is the perfect venue. Built in 1912 and restored in the first years of the next century, the historic Powerhouse elevates any event to a grand scale. The stately brickwork, structural steel, and clean architectural lines evoke the building's first use as the city's original coal-fired, steam-power plant—today these timeless features create a memorable backdrop for ceremonies, meetings, and parties of every kind.

The main floor of the Powerhouse is a high-ceilinged, elegant banquet hall crossed by cable lights, with an elevated theatrical stage at one end and full-service bar at the other—large enough for a concert, but intimate for a dinner party. The mezzanine overlooking the main floor offers a second bar and private VIP room.

Much more than open space, the Powerhouse is the only exclusive venue in the Treasure Valley with its own on-site catering, full liquor bar, and in-house DJ service. The facility is staffed with a team of hospitality and culinary professionals who will cater to your needs, with foresight and attention to detail, from planning to execution. The Powerhouse staff will set up and break down any necessary furniture, furnishings, or equipment, leaving you to enjoy the party with your guests.

The Powerhouse specializes in corporate and small-business functions, from luncheons and presentations to holiday galas, and is Boise's preeminent venue for wedding receptions. No other facility offers a more complete package for brides-to-be.

Consider the Powerhouse for class reunions, proms, awards dinners, conferences, art exhibitions, recitals, plays, dinner theater, and concerts... the possibilities are endless. Book your tour today, and let the Powerhouse create an event that will provide memories for a lifetime.
