Thank You


Thank you for your interest in the Catalina Landing Company. We offer a full service special event venue with many exciting options to make your special event a success.

The Catalina Landing Company is located in the historic El Encanto Marketplace. Constructed in 1931, the El Encanto (the enchanted), originated as a replica of a Colonial Mexican Pueblo. The Landing occupies a small hillside with spectacular views of Avalon Harbor from the terraces, and a fabulous central courtyard complete with a fountain and fringed with palm trees.

Our menus are filled with a variety of specialties that The Landing has perfected. From fresh seafood, to gourmet pizzas, to pastas and Mexican food, as well as some of the best appetizers on the island, we have a lot to offer. We also have the best selection of microbrew beers in town… 14 in all. And of course, a full service bar.

Whether you are interested in having a wedding ceremony in our courtyard, or your reception, or a company meeting, or just a great get-together with friends and family, the Catalina Landing Company has it all. And we will do our best to make your time with us enjoyable and fun.

After reviewing our banquet package, please feel free to call us to discuss your special event. Thank you again for your interest, and we look forward to speaking with you soon.

Cheers!

Veronica Bravo
Banquet Manager
