Leo Ballroom

Leo Ballroom is a historic event venue in downtown Omaha, offering an ornate setting for weddings, receptions, corporate functions and private celebrations. Restored with its original 1924 character in mind, the ballroom combines vintage details such as chandeliers, balconies and a marble staircase with facilities for contemporary events. Its approximately 12,000 square feet of space can be arranged for different formats, from seated dinners and wedding ceremonies to cocktail receptions, galas, fundraisers, fashion shows, conferences and award ceremonies.

The venue can accommodate up to 350 seated guests or 500 for a cocktail-style event. A working stage, dance floor, foyer and dedicated cocktail areas give organisers options for shaping the flow of the occasion. Tables, chairs and selected linens are available, and the team can arrange the room to suit a chosen floor plan. Wedding clients can also use separate getting-ready suites, while the venue offers bar packages for events. Catering is arranged through its partner caterers rather than presented as a standalone catering service.

Bookings include exclusive use of the space for a 14-hour period, along with security, cleaning, room set-up and pack-down, and an on-site venue manager for event-related logistics. The team provides tours, availability information and proposals to help organisers plan their booking. Its central location is close to hotels, restaurants and other downtown amenities, with on-site parking also available. Leo Ballroom is suited to planners seeking a characterful indoor venue for both formal occasions and lively celebrations.
