Available Spaces

There are many options for conference rooms at Puget Sound! If you require one or more conference rooms for your program, please notify the Conferences Manager during your inquiry process. We will do our best to find a conference room in a convenient location for you. Please consider what Audio/Visual equipment you would require in the room, such as a projector or microphone, so those needs can be considered when making a reservation.
Many classrooms throughout Puget Sound's academic buildings are available to rent. With a variety of technological capabilities and seating capacities, please communicate with the Conferences Manager about any specific needs you may have so we may best select your classrooms.
If you are looking for a smaller gathering space than our banquet rooms but larger than a typical conference room, Puget Sound has some options that could fulfill that need. For example, the Murray Boardroom in Wheelock Student Center is an excellent meeting space for up to 30 with an adjacent lounge that could be utilized for a break service. In addition, the Trimble Forum is a wonderful choice for a meeting of up to 80, with an especially short commute for your participants if they are staying in Trimble Hall. Please communicate with us the room capacity you require and any other preferences so that we can match you with the best available meeting space!
Puget Sound's banquet rooms are beautiful options for any group, whether for a catered meal or a casual gathering of attendees. Common selections include Upper Marshall Hall or the Rasmussen Rotunda, both centrally located in Wheelock Student Center, or the Tahoma Room in Thomas Hall. Each of these rooms includes full Audio/Visual capabilities and offers a variety of seating styles. In requesting a banquet room, please be as specific as possible about the necessary room capacity, type of seating arrangement, and time of day needed so we may reserve the best possible space for you.
Located adjacent to the Music Building, Schneebeck Concert Hall is a beautiful facility that offers auditorium-style seating for just under 500. This is Puget Sound's largest year-round meeting space! It includes many technological capabilities and stage options, with a staff member seeing to all of your sound needs.
Puget Sound's Rausch Auditorium offers theatre-style seating for 142 people in the garden level of McIntyre Hall. With full Audio/Visual capabilities, this space offers potential for many meetings, training, or events close to Wheelock Student Center.
During the academic year, Kilworth Memorial Chapel is used for a myriad of lectures, meetings, memorial services, and spiritual life programs. Summer in Kilworth is typically marked by many weddings and usage by overnight groups! The sanctuary on the first floor offers pew-style seating for up to 200, the Bethel Schneebeck Organ, a grand piano, and audio/visual capabilities overseen by Puget Sound staff. This is our second largest year-round meeting space at Puget Sound, which could be an excellent fit for your group. On the ground level, the Kilworth Lounge offers space for 100 seated or 175 standing, also complete with audio/visual capabilities.
Puget Sound has a great deal of green space that could be perfect for your outdoor summer activity! While sunshine is never guaranteed in the Pacific Northwest, summer months at Puget Sound are generally a great time to be outside. Whether it's for a barbecue, field games, a sports camp, or anything in-between, our grass is beautifully maintained by our Grounds Team and ready for you to enjoy.
Whether your participants are hoping to sneak in a workout between training sessions or you want to lead a dance class with youth, the newly renovated Memorial Fieldhouse offers athletic options!
Puget Sound has an indoor Tennis Pavilion with six courts! This facility can be rented as a tennis space, but is often transformed for other uses!
As part of the Athletics & Aquatics Center in the newly renovated Memorial Fieldhouse, Wallace Pool offers guests the opportunity to take a relaxing swim during the summer months. The pool features eight 25-yard lanes that are each eight feet wide. There is a moveable bulkhead, plus three warm-up lanes for instruction, rehabilitation, and therapy. Wallace Pool has permanent seating for nearly 400 spectators!
If you have participants that would like to swim individually during your program, they are welcome to use the facility during open hours at no additional charge. However, exclusive rental of Wallace Pool would require payment of the Athletics Facilities Use Fee (an additional $1 per person per day). Also, a charge of approximately $50 per hour for lifeguards may be necessary.
