A rental tent set up on the Event Lawn
The Arboretum rents several outdoor venues in the H.O. Smith Botanic Gardens. Please use our Rental Inquiry Form to request information about the availability of venues.
Rental clients may not host events that are open to the public. We rent venues for invitation-only events such as wedding ceremonies, graduation gatherings, retirement dinners, family reunions, staff retreats, and conference receptions.
There are three event levels defined by the capacity and amenities of the individual venues, the type of event being held, and the day of the week. Prices vary based on the season. Please read our rental fee rates.
Guests are asked to follow Penn State’s COVID-19 and respiratory illness guidelines for campus visitors.
