The Clay Theatre - Wedding & Event Venue Spotlight

The Clay Theatre - Green Cove Springs

If you are looking for a new event or wedding venue near St. Augustine or Jacksonville and you haven't checked out The Clay Theater in Green Cove Springs, it is a must visit! This brand new venue remodeled the historic Clay Theatre that opened in 1937.

The historic Clay Theatre EST 1937.

The new owners, Andrea & Daniel Vallencourt, purchased the historic space in 2017 and immediately began renovations. They turned this 5,000 sq ft space into a state of the art beautiful venue with the ability to comfortably hold 180 seated guests in the main banquet space with a maximum capacity of 200 for indoor receptions. Cocktail mixers for other events can hold up to 300 utilizing both the indoor and outdoor spaces.

Upon arriving at the front lobby you are greeted with a fresh and clean modern look that feels upscale with marble accents and beautiful leading lines.

The courtyard is a gorgeous open air space with beautiful palms and is the perfect backdrop for a ceremony.

What if it rains? Options are to rent a tent from one of their preferred tent vendors or to move into the main banquet hall as an alternate.
