Travel

Getting to the Venue

McMenamins Edgefield is just 15 minutes away from Portland International Airport (PDX) and 20-30 minutes from downtown Portland. Car ride services like Uber and Lyft are available if you are flying in and don't want to rent a car.

Parking

Parking is available at the venue. However, the venue also hosts large concerts on Saturday nights, so it can get quite busy. They expand parking to nearby fields when the regular lots are full.

Places to Stay

Lodging at the venue is very limited, so if you want to stay on the property, please book early!


We have a small block (10) rooms reserved at McMenamins Edgefield. Please note that these rooms have limited amenities, without air conditioning or televisions, and do not have in-room bathrooms. Private, shared bathrooms are located in the hallways. Please call to make a reservation under our name.


We also have a block of rooms reserved at the Best Western in Troutdale, just a 5-minute drive to the venue. Please call to reserve under our name for an 8 percent discount.


If you like the vibe of Edgefield but want your own bathroom and air conditioning, they have another property in NE Portland called the Kennedy School about 15-20 minutes from the venue. We don't have a block reserved here.


Airbnb rentals are also available in the area. And if you want to stay in downtown Portland proper, we'd be happy to provide hotel suggestions.

Remember when the worst thing you could imagine was being kept after class? My, how things have changed! At Kennedy School, you'll never want to leave. Here you can have a pint in a classroom, enjoy an aged whiskey in detention, enjoy a movie in the old auditorium.... The possibilities here are endless. (Just don't run in the hallways, please. You might spill your beer.)

Since its 1915 opening, this historic elementary school has been a beloved fixture of its Northeast Portland neighborhood. McMenamins renovated the once-abandoned scholastic gem and turned it into Portland's most unique hotel. Here you'll find 57 comfy guestrooms with private baths and telephones (some fashioned from former classrooms complete with original chalkboards and cloakrooms – others with an author's theme), a restaurant, multiple small bars, a movie theater, soaking pool, gift shop and a brewery (just wait until the principal hears about this!). Extensive original artwork and historical photographs cover the walls, ceilings, doorways and hallways.
