If you’re searching for a unique corporate event venue in San Francisco that offers more than just four walls, look no further than The Midway. Located in the city’s southeastern quadrant—known for having some of the best weather in San Francisco—The Midway offers an incredibly rare perk: the ability to obtain permitted street closures that expand your event space outdoors.

Why Street Closures Make a Difference for Events

For event planners organizing large-scale corporate events, conferences, or brand activations, extra outdoor space can dramatically elevate the guest experience. At The Midway, we can help secure street closure permits through the City of San Francisco, providing your event with:

  • Expanded space for stages, activations, outdoor lounges, and more
  • Improved flow and crowd management for large events
  • Greater privacy and security for VIP experiences and premium gatherings
  • Fresh air and wellness benefits ideal for outdoor dining, networking, and entertainment

Street closures effectively turn your event into a temporary private campus, enabling a level of customization and creativity that few San Francisco venues can match.

San Francisco’s Best Weather + More Room to Breathe

Unlike many parts of the city that are frequently fogged in, The Midway enjoys sunny skies and mild conditions most days of the year. Our southeastern location makes it ideal for hosting outdoor events that are comfortable, vibrant, and weather-friendly.

Combined with our ability to help secure adjacent street closures, you can create a fully integrated indoor-outdoor experience that flows naturally between rooms, patios, and the street—perfect for conferences, expos, galas, product launches, and branded activations.

We Make the Permit Process Easy

Planning an event that includes a street closure in San Francisco requires experience. That’s where The Midway stands out. Our team has successfully managed both public and private events that required coordination with the city for:

  • Street use permits and applications
  • Barricade and traffic planning
  • Security and safety logistics
  • ADA compliance and emergency access

We’ve helped top tech companies, creative agencies, and corporate teams bring their event visions to life—with the street as their canvas. If your event calls for a high-impact, open-air experience, we know how to make it happen seamlessly.

A One-of-a-Kind Venue Advantage

There are many venues in San Francisco—but very few have the infrastructure, location, and experience to offer permitted street closures. The Midway is proud to offer this distinctive benefit, making it a top choice for planners looking for large-capacity event venues in San Francisco with outdoor space.

Whether you’re planning a corporate summit, a hybrid conference, or a creative brand experience, let The Midway help you think beyond the building and bring your event to the street.
