History Park
Located on 14 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, our gated outdoor facility is complete with paved streets, a running trolley, and over two dozen historic homes and buildings to explore – plus, it’s dotted with four expansive outdoor rental spaces that can be booked individually or rented out all at once!
Looking for a respite from the sun or rain? This location also boasts two indoor meeting spaces perfect for small-to-medium sized gatherings.
Gonzales/Peralta Adobe & Fallon House Historic Site
The Carmela and Thomas Fallon House & Garden is located in the heart of Downtown San José, near noted landmarks like San Pedro Square, SAP Center, and more. Whether you’re hosting an intimate gathering in the Dining Room or partying in the garden, you’ll always see something you’ve never noticed before at the Fallon House.
When visiting the Carmela and Thomas Fallon House and Garden, you cannot miss viewing the Gonzalez/Peralta Adobe – built in 1797 – just steps away.
Client Testimonials
“History Park is a San José gem! We love holding our annual Scout-O-Rama there each mother’s day weekend. The atmosphere is indescribable and creates a priceless backdrop to our event. Having an area that is so beautiful, secure, and conveniently located makes it a great venue”
Dianne Betz, Director of Program

“HSJ is such a beautiful and interesting destination in itself. We felt like our guests would have plenty to do even outside of the activities we provided. It’s centrally located, easy to access, and we never felt crowded. We got so many nice logs from our attendees, and they all said how much they enjoyed the park”
