The Yard Goats offer a unique setting for corporate and private events, all inside a professional baseball ballpark with tremendous views of the playing field and the skyline of downtown Hartford.
The YG Club is a 7,000 square foot indoor space at Dunkin’ Park located on the upper premium level directly behind home plate: a perfect spot for galas, weddings, celebrations, company meetings, and corporate functions all year. The Yard Goats provide a personal event coordinator to help build your function from start to finish with a customized floor plan, catering and bar packages, full audio-visual capabilities, and even a visit from Chompers and Chew Chew. Many companies use the YG Club for entertaining up to 350 guests with a wide variety of dining options from cocktail parties, and buffet style meals to sit-down dinners and breakfasts.
The YG Club is an ideal place to mix work and pleasure: companies have rewarded their employees with a fun experience inside the diamond in downtown. “We recently hosted our annual holiday gathering at Dunkin’ Park, and it exceeded our expectations,” NBC Connecticut Marketing and Creative Services Director Katherine Clemens said. “The event team was incredibly responsive, making the planning process seamless. We were impressed by the wide selection of delicious food options and the beautifully decorated space. The 3D floor plan rendering was a fantastic touch, giving us a clear vision of what to expect on the event day. The addition of fun activities like cornhole, giant Jenga, and even the option to use the batting cages was a hit with our attendees, providing something for everyone to enjoy beyond the dancefloor. Dunkin’ Park truly delivered a memorable experience, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!”
The YG Club is also a great place for conferences, trainings, award shows, and banquets. “The YG Club at Dunkin’ Park is a unique event space that brings Hartford’s business community together in a professional yet fun environment,” said David Griggs -President & CEO MetroHartford Alliance. “We host our annual Breakfast with the Mayor Event at the YG Club and the space allows us to foster meaningful connections and discussions while celebrating our city. It’s an event our members look forward to year after year, and the YG Club provides the perfect atmosphere to make it special for our 350 attendees.”
The YG Club has character and is built for all occasions big or small. The latest AV technology and services will enhance your experience with projection screens, television monitors, professional staging and lighting, and premium audio configurations to ensure your message gets heard. Many companies utilize the space for business during the day, and then transform it into a social gathering for the evening, all under one roof.
While a Yard Goats game is a great way to let loose after work, sometimes you need a change of scenery to get more done during work hours. The YG Club, along with the conference room, luxury suites, Community Center, batting cages, and the clubhouses are a great setting to keep your team productive, alert, and engaged all day.
