Fall in Love with the Historic Charm & Modern Elegance of Darlington House

Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or a large formal gala, Darlington House offers an unforgettable venue for your celebration.

Darlington House is located in San Diego’s coveted and picturesque coastal neighborhood of La Jolla. Our venue’s historic architecture, colorfully tiled patios, and lush gardens have served as the backdrop for thousands of memorable and romantic events and cemented our reputation as one of the most sough-after event venues in Southern California.

Darlington House is owned and operated by Social Service League of La Jolla, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to housing and feeding seniors, which means that choosing Darlington House for your special day allows you to celebrate while also giving back to the community!
