A New Chapter for Lido House in Newport Beach

November 26, 2025

Lido House is introducing enhancements that bring even more character and coastal charm to the property.

The first reveal is The Glass House, a 540-square-foot, light-filled venue that opened this summer on the Newport Lawn. Designed to connect indoor and outdoor spaces, it features floor-to-ceiling windows, modern architectural lines, and a bright, airy setting ideal for intimate weddings, celebrations, creative pop-ups, private dinners, and small corporate events.

Also new is The Boardwalk, a 900-square-foot breakout and meeting venue that blends coastal style with smart functionality. Just steps from the Boathouse Ballroom, The Boardwalk gives planners a versatile space for strategy meetings, small-group gatherings, and dual breakout sessions.

With nearly 17,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event venues, a best-in-class events team, and these new additions, Lido House remains one of Southern California’s most stylish destinations for weddings, meetings, and social celebrations.
