The GRAND 1401 is a historical Fresno Landmark, formerly built in 1924 to serve as headquarters for the San Joaquin Light & Power Building. The picturesque space of The Grand on 10 is located at the 10th floor, which was formerly closed off to the public for decades. Now, it’s been renovated to accommodate 275 guests, with the entire room lined up with huge picture windows plus a stage. It also has a hidden wall so that the floor can be partitioned into a smaller area for meetings, cocktail receptions, and other small-crowd affairs. Your guests need not be cooped inside the party. If they feel like taking a break, our outdoor terrace is open so that your guests can have a breather while enjoying an unmatched view of the city.
