“Our nonprofit organization recently held our annual employee appreciation day at Ahwatukee Event Center. It was our first time booking the venue, and we had a great experience! From the moment we placed an inquiry to the day of our event, our coordinator Paige was incredibly kind, helpful and supportive. We comfortably fit about 100 of our staff in the Sunset Room and we enjoyed having an accessible patio adjacent to our meeting space. The venue is beautiful, the staff is so kind, and the price was unbeatable! AEC is absolutely a venue we will consider using for future events.” - Khadijah

“When looking for a place to have our reception after our Vegas wedding I came across the Ahwatukee Event Center. Paige was quick to respond to my inquiry, and we set up a meeting shortly after. After taking a tour, we knew, without looking at any other venue, that this was the place where we wanted to have our post-wedding celebration. The layout and space that we chose was perfect and easily accessible for our guests, the bartender, and caterer. The room(s) can be set up according to your needs and guest count, and there is even a small closet with decorations that you can use for your event. I highly suggest that you consider the Ahwatukee Event Center for your next special event. It is an affordable venue in a great location.” - Brady
