Rentals

Located just steps from the Magnificent Mile, the Driehaus Museum boasts decadent spaces perfect for your next event. The 1883 Nickerson Mansion, renowned as Gilded Age Chicago’s “Marble Palace,” and the adjacent 1926 Murphy Auditorium, a Baroque Revival style venue, offer a combined 30,000-square feet in one convenient locale.

We currently offer venue rentals of the Nickerson Mansion, Murphy Auditorium and other private spaces for weddings, receptions, meetings, and more. See below for capacity details.

Revenue from private rentals helps sustain Driehaus Museum programming and exhibitions; thank you for your support!
