There’s no more elegant way to impress your guests, family and friends in Omaha than selecting Joslyn Castle and its private, park-like setting for your landmark event.
The Joslyn Castle offers opportunities for indoor or outdoor events of varying sizes. It can be booked by the hour or by the day (see rates below). In choosing the Joslyn Castle, you will be able to select the spaces you wish to occupy and the food you want to serve your guests. Many of Omaha’s premier caterers provide food at the Castle on a regular basis.
The elegant entry hall is a beautiful welcoming area to greet your friends. The library, morning room, music room, and gold room are the perfect settings for meetings, parties, luncheons, or formal dining.
The English paneled dining room can be used to serve a buffet or as an elegant setting for a meal or a meeting.
The Castle has a portable projection screen and internet connectivity allowing for presentations and internet access during your event.
The grounds are the perfect setting for outside dining and other activities.
You are invited to preview the Joslyn Castle along with any members of your family or planning committee. We welcome the opportunity to meet and provide more detailed information and recommendations, should you wish them.
