The Yale Peabody Museum offers a wide selection of unique venues for your organization’s party, dinner, seminar or special event. You can choose one, several or all of our exhibit spaces for whatever your needs may be. Select from a variety of formats — whether it be a meeting in the auditorium, a cozy cocktail reception in the Hall of Native American Cultures, or a sit-down or buffet dinner in the famed Great Hall of Dinosaurs.

The Yale Peabody Museum is conveniently located on the Yale Shuttle route, and it is easily accessible from both I-95 and I-91. With several large Yale parking lots close by, it is especially well suited for evening and weekend events and programs. An event coordinator is available to guide you through the planning stages, and Museum assistants are on hand to help you during the execution of your event. We look forward to hosting your organization’s party at the Museum—let us help you make it as unforgettable as the Peabody itself!
