A: There isn’t one. The Fairfield Arts & Convention Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which means our pricing is mission-driven, not profit-driven. You’re not paying inflated “wedding venue” markups — just fair, transparent rates that keep the arts alive in our community. Couples often save thousands compared to barns, hotels, and private venues.
A: Because you’re paying actual cost, not profit margin.
You get a full indoor wedding venue, fully staffed, climate-controlled, and professionally supported — at nonprofit rates.
