Hosting your party in Baltimore offers unique opportunities to celebrate. More interesting and exciting than most people realize, Baltimore has something for everyone. It starts with a deep and rich catalogue of interesting sites, historic ships, and many museums. According to Visit Baltimore, it is known as the “birthplace of the national anthem.” Known as Charm City, Baltimore is a modern place for live music, great restaurants, lots of outdoor activities for the family, and great shopping.
