The Italian American Banquet Center of Livonia was founded in 1977 and is now a stunning, modern wedding venue in Livonia, Michigan. With membership growing, a momentous decision was made in 1990 to build a new clubhouse and banquet facility. With then-President Tony Greco spearheading the effort, financing was obtained, and the ground was broken in 1993, culminating with a Grand Opening Gala. We opened in August of 1994 with a beautiful 26,000 square-foot, two-level facility on 5.21 acres of land at Five Mile Road and the I-275 Expressway in Livonia. Serving the Metro Detroit Area in grand style, our premier facility is a wonderful venue for gatherings of all types.
