The Venue at 501 Open House

Come experience what the 500 District has to offer and start imagining your celebration at The Venue at 501!

Join us on Saturday, September 12 from 11 AM–3 PM for our Open House. Whether you’re searching for the perfect wedding venue, already booked with us, or helping someone you love plan their big day, we’d love to welcome you in.

During the Open House, you’ll have the opportunity to tour The Venue at 501 and The Trap Door and see firsthand how these unique spaces can come together for your wedding or special event.

This is also your chance to start envisioning the details! Explore table settings, arch options and layout ideas, find inspiration for photos throughout the property, and learn about the unique lodging accommodations available for your wedding weekend.

And because it’s all located in the heart of the 500 District, you’ll have the convenience of 505 Café right next door when you want to grab a coffee or bite to eat.

We will have catering samples at the event and our team will be available to answer questions about food and bar service. If you already have a caterer you love, outside catering is welcome too.

Our Venue Manager will be on-site throughout the Open House to answer questions, talk through your options, and help you picture how your celebration could come together at 501.

Already booked with us? Bring your friends and family along for a sneak peek at your venue! You can explore setup ideas, continue planning the details of your day, and enjoy a special gift for previously booked couples.

Still looking for your venue? Be sure to ask about the special booking incentives available during the Open House!
