The Castle at Park Plaza is a unique special event and conference venue located in Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood in the heart of the city.

This designated National Historic Landmark has hosted some of Boston’s most exclusive events over the years. With 14,642 square feet this expansive one room venue is spacious and versatile, perfect for expositions, conferences, tradeshows, theater productions, galas, receptions and banquets.
