About

Sitting on the banks of the historic Columbia River, the Portland Yacht Club makes the perfect venue for a variety of events.

Founded in 1908 as a motor boat racing club, the venue boasts nostalgic decorations and stunning views of the North Portland Harbor and the Hayden and Tomahawk islands.

The clubhouse possesses four venues within: a grand ballroom, dining room, terrace patio, and ceremony lawn. With capacities for up to 300 guests, Portland Yacht Club facilitates a flawless event. Choose the bank of the river as a beautiful backdrop as the wind whispers gently, or the grand ballroom with its vaulted ceilings and French-inspired windows dramatically framing the greenery in the distance. The dining room lends an elegant ambiance while the patio allows you and your guests to experience the beauty of the river and breathtaking sunset, in a sophisticated but laid-back setting.

There’s nothing like an event on the banks of the river as the sun sets on Oregon’s oldest yacht club.

Amazing. Excellent food, beverages and staff.

PYC is simply the best. Several guests felt ours was the best wedding experience of their lives. Highly recommend.

Totally Awesome

We had such a great experience at the Portland Yacht Club. Not only was the event space great but the opportunity to have our event right there near the Columbia River was amazing. This would have not been nearly as great if we didn't have an excellent event coordinator. Ashley Wilson crushed it out for us. She really did a great job of setting up the place for us and making it such a memorable & enjoyable experience. I would recommend the PYC for anyone looking for a great venue to get married or host any sort of event.

The Portland Yacht Club is a fun venue right on the Columbia River with plenty of parking, huge dance floor and a few ceremony options for those who want to get married here. They have an efficient full-service staff, full bar, in-house catering, a large outdoor patio facing the river, and very accommodating management. Great place for a milestone celebration!
