Rentals

Rent the De la Luz Soundstage or the Divine Theater for a concert, wedding, fundraiser or community event.

De la Luz offers a range of spaces for performances, celebrations, meetings, workshops, dinners, and gatherings of all kinds.

Our two performance venues on Race Street in downtown Holyoke—the De la Luz Soundstage and the more intimate Divine Theater—are joined by a dining room and flexible workshop and gathering spaces on the third floor. Spaces can be rented individually or combined for larger events that make use of multiple parts of the campus.

Explore the spaces below, including capacities, floor plans, and examples of how they’ve been transformed for celebrations, concerts, parties, fundraisers, workshops, and other events.

Planning something? Tell us a little about your event at the bottom of the page, and we will be in touch.

The Divine Theater is a 3,000-square-foot flexible black box space with high ceilings, a beautiful wood floor, and the industrial character of the historic Judd Paper Company building.

The room can be configured for performances, dances, dinners, receptions, talks, and other gatherings, with a full bar and sound booth. Its lobby connects directly to the Dining Room, allowing the two spaces to work together for larger or multi-part events.

03Catering

De la Luz has a full commercial kitchen and offers in-house catering for events throughout the campus, from receptions and casual gatherings to seated dinners and larger celebrations.

Our catering team can work with you to create food that fits your event, your guests, and the way you’re using the space. Let us know what you have in mind when you submit your inquiry.

We generally require events to use De la Luz catering rather than outside caterers.

  1. A buffet on long wooden tables in afternoon light: tiered stands, fruit, crudités, crackers and small labelled cardsDe la Luz

  2. A wooden board of cubed cheeses, cured meats, grapes, crisps and a jar of preserves against a black brick wallDe la Luz

Tell us whether you’d like food and we’ll talk you through the options.

04Planning Your Event

Every event is a little different. Rental rates depend on the space, date, hours, setup, staffing, technical needs, catering, and other details of your event.

Tell us what you’re planning and we’ll put together a quote outlining the space, what’s included, and any additional services you’ll need. Deposit, payment terms, and rental hours will all be confirmed as part of the booking process.

Not sure exactly what you need yet? That’s fine. Tell us what you’re imagining, and we can help you figure out which space and setup will work best.
