Why Schaumburg Residents Choose International Banquet
Schaumburg has no shortage of places to hold an event—the Woodfield corridor is packed with hotel ballrooms and convention spaces. What it lacks is a venue that's exclusively yours. When Schaumburg families and businesses book International Banquet in Arlington Heights, they get the entire hall: no convention crowd in the lobby, no second reception down the corridor, no staff split between three events. Our family-owned venue has hosted celebrations for 50 to 150 guests since 2008, and one experienced team manages every detail from first consultation to final send-off.
Transparent per-person pricing means Schaumburg hosts can budget from the very first call: individual luncheons at $25 per person, family style at $29, buffet at $34, and plated dinners at $65 with a 3-hour open bar ($40 without bar service). Event minimums are $1,500 for lunch events until 4 PM, $2,000 for Sunday–Thursday evenings, and $3,000 for Friday and Saturday evenings, before tax and gratuity—a refreshing contrast to hotel-ballroom quotes that balloon with room fees and service add-ons.
Everything is prepared fresh in our in-house kitchen, with menus that adapt to dietary needs and cultural traditions alike.
An Easy Drive from Anywhere in Schaumburg
International Banquet sits at 1863 W Central Rd in neighboring Arlington Heights, typically a 12–18 minute drive depending on where in Schaumburg you're starting from—closer to 12 from the northeast side near Golf Road and Route 53, a little longer from the neighborhoods around Town Square or the far west side. Wherever your guests begin, whether near the Woodfield Mall area or the office parks along Meacham Road and the I-90 corridor, the route is straightforward, with no downtown traffic and no parking garages at the end of it.
That proximity works in your favor throughout planning, too. Menu tastings and walkthroughs fit into a lunch break, and the hotels clustered around Woodfield and the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center give out-of-town guests plenty of places to stay within a short drive of the celebration.
Weddings Near Schaumburg
Couples comparing Schaumburg's large convention hotels often tell us the rooms feel built for trade shows, not vows. Our hall is deliberately scaled the other way: an intimate wedding venue near Schaumburg where 50 guests feel warm and celebrated rather than scattered, and where the full evening—cocktail hour, dinner, toasts, dancing—grows comfortably to 150 in our wedding reception space. A dedicated coordinator works with you from first tour to last dance.
Corporate Events for Schaumburg Businesses
From the Meacham Road corporate corridor to the offices around Woodfield, Schaumburg companies choose our corporate event venue near Schaumburg when the occasion calls for privacy a shared hotel ballroom can't offer—client dinners, recognition ceremonies, and board functions where sensitive conversations stay in the room. Free parking directly outside the entrance removes the parking-garage friction your attendees know too well from convention-district events. And when December arrives, we host holiday celebrations for your team that feel festive without the convention-center scale.
Free Parking for All Schaumburg Guests
Anyone who's circled a Woodfield-area garage in December knows parking can sour an event before it starts. We made it simple: ample free parking, directly adjacent to our entrance, in a well-lit lot. No fees, no shuttle, no long walks—a genuine relief for guests with mobility concerns, parents with young children, and anyone arriving with gifts in hand.
