McNamara Alumni Center

McNamara Alumni Center is a Minneapolis event venue on the University of Minnesota campus, available for meetings, conferences, galas, holiday parties, and wedding receptions. The center features ten unique meeting rooms on the first floor, architecture inspired by the Minnesota landscape of wood, water, and copper, built-in AV with onsite technicians, and catering by D'Amico Hospitality. Located off Interstates 35W and 94, less than 2 miles from downtown Minneapolis and 14 miles from the airport, with a 500-car parking ramp adjacent and connected by tunnel. Couples cite the large windows, attentive staff who handled last-minute requests, and close coordination between the venue and catering team; one couple noted planning was conducted entirely by email and Zoom after the initial tour.
