Astor Classics Museum & Event Center

Went to an event here last night and we had so much fun. This is a beautiful museum and stuff was great!

Came here for a wedding, and the décor was amazing. Classic vintage cars everywhere and spacious area. Awesome place. Very impressed!

This place is the perfect venue for anyone who loves vintage cars and electronics. They have classic radios and cars that date all the way back to 1940’s. It’s a very sweet place. A family friend of mine hosted her wedding here and it was the perfect wedding venue.

Astor Classics is amazing! The museum gave me goosebumps when Michael opened the doors for our first tour. Mr. Astor has an amazing collection of cars! We held a fundraiser for our kids elementary school and the evening went off without a hitch! We raised the most money ever and everyone enjoyed themselves! Michael was always very accommodating & helpful. He has vendors from low budget to high budget. We ended up using his BBQ vendor with our 50’s theme. The food fit perfectly with our theme and was so delicious! We are so happy with the turnout! Thank you Michael for all of your hard work! We really appreciate it!

We just hosted our annual school fundraiser here last Saturday. It was a huge success! Michael was great to work with! He was so prepared and was still great about last minute chances. His crew helped us set up and breakdown, too! Everyone at the event raved at what a great time they had. There was so much to look at and we didn’t have to spend any money in decorations! It was perfect.

This past weekend my now husband and I had our wedding at Astor and it was flawless! Every one of our guests were astonished on how beautiful all the cars and museum in itself was. Our wedding was the best day of our lives thus far! We want to thank Michael for really having our backs in seeing our vision for the way we wanted everything. He knows what he is doing a hundred percent so I would suggest that anyone wanting to host an event here to just put your full trust in him and he’ll make your event perfect!

The venue was beautiful and Phil and Steve are really nice and really work with you to make your event perfect. The venue has a really unique feel inside and my guests loved seeing all the old cars and taking photos. They also have cool lanterns above the seating area that change colors which give this venue a glamorous feel. Overall I was very pleased with my experience.

We used Astor Classics as the venue for a fundraising dinner /​auction for our high school. It was a HUGE hit. Everyone loved the fabulous car collection and the fact they could enjoy the museum, peruse the silent auction items, taste the appetizers and socialize with other guests all in the same room. Michael Keener worked incredibly hard to accommodate all of our requests for the evening and everything ran very smoothly. I highly recommend this venue for your next big event!

I highly recommend this location for your next big event. Astor offers a very unique draw for your wedding, corporate or charity event in that the location is only open to guests of an event. Michael, took care of our casino night event as if we were family. The location is beautifully maintained, and you know you are witnessing something truly special when you walk through the history of all of the amazing communication collections, in addition to the huge collection of restored classics. Words cannot describe how you amazed you will be.
I found the staff to be extremely committed to the success of event, and considerate if our needs. I cannot thank them enough.

One of the best events we have had… made better by the amazing event space! The classic cars really added to the atmosphere! The staff was wonderful and very easy to work with… I would highly recommend!

The service and the experience is unparalleled. Mike Keneer was extremely helpful and he went out of his way to accommodate us with our event for the Filipino American Chamber of Commerce of OC (FACCOC). We even had the opportunity to meet and was honored by Mr. Arthur Astor’s visit during our gala. The ambience was perfect for our «great Gatsby» themed gala. It was elegant and a lot of fun for our guests. Everyone had a lot of fun and surely a great experience for all! Thank you for the memories!

This venue is gorgeous. Michael and Colette are very accommodating. Their vendors are superb. My wedding was held at this venue and myself, my wife and family were beyond ecstatic. I received compliments on the venue from multiple people during the reception and would gladly rent this facility in the future.

Went here over the weekend for a Fraternity Reunion lunch. It was very low key. A bit hard to find, but well worth it. There is so much to see there besides the cars. The phones, slot machines, record players, old signs, gas pumps, and the first refridgerators too! They were very happy to accomodate us and everyone had a great time. As a Realtor with First Team Estates in Newport Beach, I have a great appreciation for preserving classics from paintings, to cars, and even old record players. There is so much to be appreciated at the Astor Classics Museum and Event Center. It will definitely be on my list of places to book if I get the opportunity.

We had an event at this Museum and it was very entertaining to see many of the antique phones, vinyl players, film projectors with screens, radios, and many different cars! From the stylish Woodies to the sleek Rolls Royce guides you through an aisle of classic Mercedes and a walk pass the hardbody muscle cars! This place is pretty neat! There is also a wall of model locomotives, old time fuel pumps lined up against the wall, and a vintage Coca-​Cola Classic diner setting to complete the atmosphere!
Neat place for a company event!

Classic Cars. Even if you aren’t a gearhead, you can appreciate this place. Beautiful cars from several different eras. Everything from a movie star’s Rolls Royce from the 20’s to Woodies to American muscle cars. Large garages to accommodate the cars, and a couple smaller rooms to display models of cars (and some weird nostalgic toys as well — I found a creepy Pee Wee Herman doll).
Now I didn’t see the museum in its regular state, but instead as it turned into a huge party my company was throwing. So, there were 1,400 drunk people running around looking at the cars, gulping down Jack&Coke’s and beer. Fun nonetheless, and the cars are great. If your company needs a large venue to host a party, I’d recommend this venue, its very large, lots of great cars to look at, and something different from the norm.
