The Pavilions at Penfield Beach

 

Nestled in the picturesque town of Fairfield, Connecticut, The Pavilions at Penfield Beach offer two stunning beachfront venues perfect for any celebration. With sweeping views of the Long Island Sound, these venues provide a breathtaking backdrop for weddings, parties, and special events. The Pavilions are composed of the Penfield Pavilion and the Jacky Durrell Pavilion, each offering its unique charm and amenities to suit different tastes and event sizes.

The Penfield Pavilion stands out with its modern architecture, featuring arched cathedral ceilings and a spacious layout, making it ideal for larger gatherings. It can comfortably host seated functions of up to 180 guests and cocktail parties for up to 300 guests. The Pavilion’s covered deck and unobstructed water views create a perfect setting for wedding ceremonies, seamlessly transitioning into lively cocktail hours. On the other hand, the Jacky Durrell Pavilion offers a cozy, rustic ambiance with its warm whitewashed wood and sweetheart vaulted ceilings. This intimate space accommodates up to 125 guests and boasts a wraparound deck, perfect for mingling while enjoying the breathtaking beach and sound views.

Booking at The Pavilions is flexible and convenient, with rentals typically spanning six hours, including time for setup and breakdown. Additional hours can be reserved as needed, allowing for customized event scheduling. The rental package includes access to the Pavilion and deck, use of tables and chairs, and an attendant to handle setup and breakdown, ensuring a seamless experience. While a list of recommended vendors is available to assist in planning, clients have the freedom to choose their own service providers.

Currently, the Penfield Pavilion is undergoing a large-scale remediation effort and is offline as of October 31, 2022, with no confirmed reopening date. Meanwhile, the Jacky Durrell Pavilion remains open and available for reservations from mid-April through mid-October annually. The Pavilions at Penfield Beach are committed to transparency and aim to provide clients with all necessary information to make informed decisions for their special events.
