Wedding DJ at Windsor Run in Matthews, NC

The Space

Windsor Run is a 60-acre continuing care community in Matthews managed by Erickson Senior Living, and its scale is still growing: after the first neighborhood opened with 188 independent living residences, a second neighborhood added 91 more units in fall 2024, and construction on the community’s final two buildings wrapped in early 2026 with another 185 units, making this one of the larger senior living campuses in the Charlotte area right now.

Glass-enclosed, climate-controlled walkways connect the residential buildings to the community’s dining venues, fitness areas, and gathering spaces, including a ballroom among the shared amenities, so residents and their guests can move between buildings without stepping outside, a detail that matters directly for an event held on a hot summer day or a cold winter evening in Matthews.

Capacity & Layout

Windsor Run has not published a fixed guest capacity for its ballroom or event spaces the way a dedicated wedding venue would, since the space exists primarily to serve residents rather than to host outside weddings, so a couple or family planning an event here should confirm room size and layout directly with the community rather than assuming a set number ahead of time, especially with the campus still expanding.

What is clear from the property’s design is that the ballroom sits within the same connected network of climate-controlled buildings as the dining venues and the theater, which means an event booked there benefits from the same indoor, all-weather access that residents use every day, rather than standing apart as a separate rental hall on its own.

Amenities

The community’s amenity list runs well beyond a single event room: a heated indoor pool, a fitness center, a theater, a woodworking shop, an art studio, and a library all sit within the same connected campus, and multiple dining venues on site offer chef-prepared meals, which gives an event here access to real kitchen capacity rather than outside catering brought in cold from off the property.

Organized activities, clubs, and programs run continuously throughout the community, which means Windsor Run functions as a full, active neighborhood rather than a quiet campus that only comes alive for scheduled events, and that day-to-day energy is part of what a family books when they choose to hold a celebration inside the ballroom here on site rather than at an outside hall.

Location & Getting There

Windsor Run sits in Matthews, near Mint Hill, on a gated 60-acre campus that has been under active expansion since at least 2024, with its most recent buildings completed in early 2026, so the property a family sees today is a newer, larger version of the community than existed even a couple of years back, with new residences still coming online.

The ballroom sits inside the same enclosed, climate-controlled network as the rest of the campus, which means it behaves like any indoor event room for sound: a hard-surfaced or carpeted interior that keeps a DJ setup contained and predictable, without the wind or temperature swings that an open-air or tented setup elsewhere on the property would introduce into the evening, and without competing noise from another part of the campus.
