Book an Event at Tanglewood
Tanglewood has been the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra since 1937. Comprising more than 400 acres of landscaped grounds, formal gardens, and rolling meadows in the towns of Lenox and Stockbridge, Tanglewood was once the country estate of Boston banker William Aspinwall Tappan. The Property, including the Main House which is still in use today, was given to the Boston Symphony Orchestra by Tappan’s daughter, Mary, and her niece Mrs. Gorham Brooks. Although Tanglewood welcomes more than 300,000 visitors each year, its beauty and tranquility remain unchanged.
All fees are subject to change without notice.

From Jeff K. (May 2025 Wedding)
"Tanglewood sparkled in every way. A year ago, Ellen and I rode our bikes into the Linde Center lot, viewed the grounds on a perfect spring day, and prayed for a repeat on May 31st, 2025. We did not get that wish but a greater power delivered so much more. The Linde Center and Highwood Club were great and the staff was amazing and incredibly accommodating. Erin did a wonderful job keeping things flowing and Boston Gourmet did a top-notch job. Last, the cart crew was amazing on a day they were really needed. Our guests raved about the venue."
From Katie and Will Epstein (May 2025 Wedding Couple)
"Getting married at Tanglewood was such a dream. It’s a beautiful location with so much rich history, and a lot of meaning for our families and ourselves. We wanted to make sure we had both indoor and outdoor venues we were equally excited about, and the Linde Center and Highwood lawn delivered. The team was amazing, supportive, and exuded nothing but excitement and enthusiasm for us throughout the planning process and beyond the wedding itself. A bonus is that whenever we visit for a performance in the summers, we can relive the best day of our lives all over again!
Erin and Rena were superstars. They were a delight to work with and supported nearly every outrageous request we had. We never felt ignored or dismissed throughout the stressful planning process. They made it clear they wanted to help us have the best day possible, and communicated clearly about what was and was not feasible, which made planning go very smoothly. They eased our stresses, and on the day-of, we could relax knowing Erin, Rena, Beth, and their teams had everything under control. Our catering tasting was one of the most fun moments of our planning process, in addition the food being remarkable. Many guests still tell us it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had! They were very helpful in accommodating food allergies in a personal and attentive way. We cannot recommend Tanglewood more highly for a beautiful venue, amazing catering service, and delightful memories!"
