Venue Setting

The Blackburn Inn announced the opening of the new Wellness and Conference Center, set to open mid-2020. The Conference Center will feature up to 10,000 square feet of meeting space, including the Great Hall ballroom of 5,000 square feet, a guest facing kitchen, and bar. Contiguous to the facility is a beautifully designed 3,000 square foot wellness facility. The restoration of this building will be a fantastic addition to the complex that can be used for weddings, conferences, and seminars.
With this exciting new addition, the Inn will also enjoy a new name as The Blackburn Inn and Conference Center. The 30,000 square foot building, originally used for Laundry and Personnel Quarters, was constructed in 1865. It features outdoor spaces, historically preserved architecture, and two luxury apartments. Walking trails connect the Wellness and Conference Center, the Villages at Staunton grounds, and The Blackburn Inn.
