Baltimore Beyond the Tradeshow Floor
Experiences and Venues To Give Your Attendees the Real Feel of Baltimore
B. Willow
In an increasingly technology-dependent world, Liz Vayda, owner of B. Willow, aims to help reconnect us with nature. Learn about plant care and create your own terrarium or plant hanger through one of the workshops offered on site.
American Visionary Art Museum
A great choice for an artsy setting, this unique museum—which houses creations made by self-taught artists—hosts events in a third-floor banquet room with panoramic views of the harbor and skyline, or in its Sculpture Barn & Wildflower Garden.
Sagamore Spirit
This waterfront whiskey distillery—owned by Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank—offers private events that include tastings and tours, but also specialty tours such as sunset cruises, group bottling and cocktail lessons.
Drama MaMa Bookshop
Alisa Brock is passionate about the written word and through her shop, Drama MaMa, she hopes to help inspire more people to take pen to paper with her laser cut journals and notebooks. Make your own through one of her “wine and bind” events.
B&O Railroad Museum
Set at the historic site considered to be the birthplace of the American railroad, this museum boasts the world’s oldest and most comprehensive American railroad collection. Groups can rent a variety of spaces, including rail cars, the outdoor pavilion and the main roundhouse.
Hotel Revival
Baltimore’s newest boutique hotel is loaded with unique event spaces—but we’re especially partial to Topside, the buzzy rooftop restaurant and garden bar—complete with a beautiful view of its historic neighborhood and a carefully curated craft beer menu.
Frederick Douglass-Isaac Meyers Maritime Park Museum
This park and museum honors the legacy of the African Americans who worked in Baltimore’s shipyards in the 1800s and 1900s. Situated along the water in historic Fell’s Point, the space features industrial elegance, floor-to-ceiling windows, a brick courtyard and wooden pier overlooking the Baltimore Harbor.
Union Craft Brewing
Union Collective provides space for local entrepreneurs to grow their business. Every month, tour each with a tasting at each stop: Union Craft Brewery beer, The Charmery ice cream, Baltimore Spirits Company whiskey, brandy, mezcal, gin and amari, and Vent Coffee Roasters coffee.
