Cave and Basin National Historic Site

A cave and basin are a breathtaking combination. Mix in a bit of history and you’re in a very special setting. There’s Story Hall, built in 1914 with vaulted ceilings, the Galletly Building, that is home to a 40-seat theatre and multi-functional room, or wow them outdoors with the Belvedere Viewing Decks or Historic Pool Deck, where 250 can star gaze and sip cocktails. There are trails and boardwalks over marshland.

Mt. Norquay

You’re just minutes from downtown, but Mt. Norquay’s alpine ambiance is other-worldly overlooking Banff. For big events there’s the 24,000-square foot Cascade Lodge or go smaller with the Lone Pine or Kika’s Café. The Lone Pine Lawn and the Cascade Lodge Patio are prime spots for seasonal gatherings.
Mount View BBQ

Mount View BBQ is in a secluded forest area, boasts 360-degree mountain views, and ideal for 200-300 people. It’s beloved for its two roadhouses and western authenticity. The massive, manicured lawn sets the stage for a reception with lawn games and comfy seating around fire pits.
