About this venue

The Cardiff Center at Fort Frenzy boasts a 6,500 + square foot event center / reception space that was specifically designed to transform into an event venue that comfortably accommodates 400 + people. In 2019 a substantial bar area and modern flooring as well as vestibule was added to the space. The lobby, also included with the rental, adds roughly 500 additional square feet of space. State-of-the-art technology & sound & gorgeous chandeliers, as well as friendly bar staff are among several of the offerings included with the space. (Not to mention all of the "givens" expected of an exceptional event venue, including clean restrooms and dependable air conditioning.) The Cardiff Center at Fort Frenzy has all the amenities you’d expect from a premiere event venue with unlimited possibilities. Exciting news for future brides & grooms--our venue is now located within walking distance to Brookstone Inn & Suites, a cozy yet contemporary hotel newly opened in 2019!
