Banquet Room
The Banquet Room is the heart of the Ocoee Lakeshore Center. It offers a wide variety of configurations for all types of events.
Pre-Function Lobby
The Lobby provides supplemental and casual space to support breaks and to extend the Banquet Room. It does so with the best views of any event facility in Orange County. As the least formal space in the venue, the Lobby features extensive window seats, 70 inch flat panel television, extensive mood lighting controls, and tall windows offering a full panoramic view of Bill Breeze Park and Starke Lake.
Offering direct access to the Banquet Room and outside spaces, the Lobby also serves as a bridge linking these various elements of the Ocoee Lakeshore Center. It’s a great place for your event guests and participants to network and relax. This is also a frequent site of one or more of the Lakeshore Center’s three portable bars.
