The Casino San Clemente was designed in emulation of the casino on Catalina Island. It opened in 1937 and first featured an orchestra, live radio broadcasts, and the occasional Hollywood celebrity. The Casino took off from there and soon became one of Southern California’s concert hot-spots, with the likes of Judy Garland crooning onstage and surfer stomp dances filling the weekends with fun. The Casino’s colorful past includes Coast Guard occupation during wartime and 7 ongoing years of dinner theater. In 2010, the venue was completely restored and renewed according to its original design, architecture, and embellishments. Since then, it has been open to the public for special event bookings of all kinds.

The Casino San Clemente, a local historical landmark modeled after the entertainment Casino of Catalina Island, celebrates renewed vibrancy after years of loving restoration and renovation. Judy Garland herself sang in the Casino's Grand Ballroom in the early '40's, and the romance of that era and the many stars that visited, including Mickey Rooney, Vivien Leigh, Dorothy Lamour and Cesar Romero, still lingers. Ocean views along with multiple venue choices offer a new bride many opportunities to create her own 'history': the private Rock Garden with market lights and outdoor fireplace, the historical 'Patio of the Stars' with handmade star tiles, the iconic round ballroom with stage and 'floating dance floor' as well as the warm woods of the West Wing can serve guests from groups as intimate as 50 to a 300 guest sit down dinner.

Added amenities include our Bride’s Room, once a dressing room for visiting Hollywood starlets, with private bath and separate entrance. Also, please visit our “History Hall”, a great place to occupy your guests with local history, anecdotes and head shots of actors who have graced the Casino stage. Our Lobby Lounge can be a welcoming cocktail area with sunset views of the Pacific from the porch. And just steps away is North Beach, should a Bride desire those classic wedding photos in the sand.

The Casino San Clemente’s staff is available for tours most days at 949-369-6600 and welcome the opportunity to show our special venue, now in its 76th year as a celebration site, perfectly suited for creating a memorable occasion. Our proven “Friends of the Casino” listing specializes in wedding assistance and services including award winning food services, wedding planning, photography, florists, rentals, musicians and videographers.

Ample public parking and easy access off the 5 freeway and/or PCH add to the ease of the event.
