Event Request Form and Policy
Thank you for your interest in the Illinois Governor’s Mansion. The People’s House has both a revitalized look and mission. Your guests will enjoy the elegance of our refurbished Italianate-style mansion and experience Illinois history and art. Our event policy respects this 160-year-old state treasure yet anticipates accommodations for a wide variety of special occasions, events, and functions.
The Governor’s Mansion serves as the official residence of the First Family; a working office; a venue for educational, professional, community, and civic events; and a museum for visitors to Springfield. The Governor’s Mansion is a historic landmark that needs to be a living museum and treated with care.
We look forward to working with you and we realize that each event is unique. For this reason, please note that this document may not address every potential issue, so we ask that you speak with our House Manager regarding all event details. Moreover, the Mansion’s extensive renovation has required an update of our event policies in order to improve the ongoing care and maintenance of the space. For this reason, certain events held here in the past may not be hosted here in the future.
