Historic Acres of Hershey

Historic Acres of Hershey is an event venue in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, set across seven acres of landscaped grounds. Its collection of indoor and outdoor spaces gives event planners options for weddings, receptions, social celebrations and corporate functions, from small gatherings to larger events.

The property includes the Pavilion, Barn and Coop, each with its own character and capacity. The Pavilion can host up to 260 guests, while the Barn accommodates up to 100 and the Coop up to 50. The spaces are available for celebrations such as birthdays, showers, rehearsal dinners and anniversaries, as well as corporate events. Tables and chairs are included with venue rentals. Catering arrangements depend on the space and package, and clients can work with local caterers.

For weddings, the venue offers packages for larger celebrations, micro-weddings and elopements. Couples can choose from designated ceremony locations, including outdoor settings, with indoor alternatives available for weather contingencies. Reception options include a climate-controlled Pavilion or a more intimate Barn setting. The on-site Farmhouse is available with selected packages or as an add-on, providing preparation space and overnight accommodation for up to nine guests.

The grounds, pond, farmhouse and greenhouse offer settings for photographs, while the venue's team can provide information about packages, recommended local vendors and rental options. Planners can arrange a tour by appointment and discuss the spaces and booking details directly with the venue.
