Is your group looking for event facilities in Pennsylvania for your next social or business gathering? Think Gettysburg. American history holds a special place in its heart for this land. It was there that Abraham Lincoln delivered one of the most often quoted speeches ever, which begins "Four score and seven years ago." You and your guests can visit that glorious moment in history when you host your next event at Gettysburg College! The campus is located directly adjacent to the Gettysburg National Military Park, which encompasses the very National Cemetery that Abraham Lincoln dedicated with that famous speech on November 19, 1863, honoring the sacrifices of those who fought in the Civil War, in hopes that a "government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." It was upon this rich tapestry that Gettysburg was built.

With the National Military Park right across the street, and both gift and necessities shopping equally close, attendees can take a stroll and tread in the very footsteps of giants like Lincoln, then return for another inspirational meeting in your event!
