We have a city block of free on-sight parking. We specialize in hosting groups from 200 to 1200 for banquets, dancing, and other festive events.
Event planning is available upon request.
The Kato has over 20,000 square feet of public area for your use that can be set for banquets, auditorium style for concerts, or classroom style for meetings. Our ballroom features a 76' x 63' floating maple dance floor and is perfect for those special night-out events that your group will want to include in their program. We have a 34' x 13' raised stage for head tables, bands, or other entertainment.
