Beginning October 11th, Clyde Iron Works will transition away from regular public restaurant and brewery operations to focus fully on its growing events business as Clyde Iron Events & Weddings. The historic Duluth venue will expand its focus on weddings, concerts, galas, corporate events, fundraisers, community celebrations, and private gatherings for groups ranging from 20 to 2,000 guests, seven days a week. “We’ve seen greater demand for larger events over the past several years, and this transition allows us to dedicate the entire building to creating the experiences people are looking for,” said owner Alex Giuliani. Public dining and brewery operations will conclude October 10th, while all previously booked private events will continue as planned. With an expanded event calendar and the upcoming nine-room Clyde Hotel, Clyde is looking to strengthen Clyde Park as a destination for weddings, events, conferences, and visitors throughout the region.
