The Venues at Riverfront Park

The Venues at Riverfront Park are nestled in the Historic Officers Housing District on the former Charleston Naval Base. They sit within Riverfront Park with sweeping views of the banks of the Cooper River. When the Charleston Naval Base closed in 1996, much of the property was turned over to the City of North Charleston. Each of the venues are within walking distance of each other and offer grand oak trees draped with Spanish moss, street lined azaleas, making them the optimum spot for weddings, rehearsals and many more of life’s special events. Not only is Riverfront Park home to the Greater Charleston Naval Base Memorial, but it is also a popular concert and festival venue. The park itself has an interactive water fountain and boardwalks to stroll along the River. Visitors can also go fishing from the Admiral’s pier or the wooden dock and take a scenic walk across our new Noisette Creek Pedestrian Bridge. Feel free to reach out about our availability for hosting your special event and we look forward to hearing from you soon! 

Our 2026 books are OPEN as of February 1st, 2024!!!
