Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about hosting your event on the Rock Island Bridge.

How many people can the American Royal Hall hold?

American Royal Hall can seat up to 216 guests and stand up to 325 guests.

How much does an event rental cost?

Rental rates vary based on time of the year, day of the week, and time of the day. After submitting your form, the proper pricing guide will be sent to you.

Is American Royal Hall inside?

No, this is not an indoor space. However, the space is covered by a roof, has retractable screens to block wind, and gas heaters to warm it up on chilly evenings. On warm days, thanks to the Bridge's location over the Kansas River, it's about 10–15°F cooler in American Royal Hall than on the ground. The river breeze really helps keep it comfortable!

Are there in-house food and beverage options available?

Yes! The One Family Catering team oversees all bar operations and can cater your event as well, creating a fully streamlined event experience. If you wish to use outside catering, a small list of preferred caterers is available.

Can I rent both levels of the Rock Island Bridge?

Yes! American Royal Hall + the River House restaurant has capacity for 350 seated and 500 standing guests. Please specify in your form submission if you are interested in a double level rental.
