Everything you need to know before booking.
Depending on your setup, we can accommodate 50 to 400 guests. Front Space fits 50–120; the middle tier pairs the Front Space with your choice of the indoor terrace OR the back space (same price) and handles 120–250; Full Space goes up to 400.
Yes — rentals have a 4-hour minimum Sunday through Thursday, and a 5-hour minimum on Fridays and Saturdays.
We host events until 2am. We do not host after-hours events beyond that.
No early access. The time you book is when the studio manager is scheduled to arrive — if you show up before your window starts, you won't be able to get in. Make sure to build setup time into your booking.
You get a 15-minute grace period to load out. Past that, overtime bills in one-hour increments at 1.5× your hourly rate — so if you think you might run long, adding an extra hour upfront at the regular rate is the cheaper move. All events end by 2am.
Yes — the host who booked (or a designated adult you name in advance) must be on-site for the entire event, from when the first guest arrives until the last guest leaves.
The studio manager is on-site to help your event run smoothly — things like setting up chairs and tables, basic audio, and helping you find what you need around the venue. They are not a full-service coordinator and won't handle décor, staging, or a complete event install. Keep in mind it's one person, so plan your setup time accordingly. If you need a full setup, we recommend building in extra time or hiring an event planner or decorator — we can connect you with trusted vendors.
There's a small stage on-site — great for performers, speakers, and DJs. We're actively working on upgrading it.
Yes — we have a dedicated DJ booth / setup area included with every rental.
Yes — we have a 110" display you can connect your own device to. Great for presentations, slideshows, photo montages, or video content.
Yes — high-speed WiFi is included with every rental.
Yes — we have a private dressing room / green room on-site. Great for performers, speakers, wedding parties, or anyone who needs a private prep space before the event.
We have heating but no AC. The space has fans — keep that in mind when planning summer events.
We have 4 private parking spots on-site. There's also free street parking in the area and multiple paid parking lots nearby. We send full parking info and directions once you're booked.
Yes. You're welcome to bring your own catering and bar setup — outside vendors are allowed. Events serving alcohol (including BYOB) pay a $5-per-guest alcohol service fee ($200 minimum) — for comparison, venues with in-house bars typically run $15–25 per guest before tip — which covers permit compliance and extra cleanup, and must comply with WA State Liquor Board rules — you provide your own WA banquet permit, and insurance or a deposit may be required depending on the event. Security and bartenders are staffed through us for any event serving alcohol (billed separately from the alcohol service fee) — outside bartenders aren't permitted. Our bartending includes bar set up, ice, compostable cups, and all equipment to make and chill drinks — you provide the ingredients (including garnishes), your own signage, and your banquet permit.
No. Any show or event where alcohol is being served must be 21+ only. The exception is private banquets — weddings, family parties, and similar gatherings. Not sure which category your event falls into? Reach out and we'll figure it out.
Yes — security runs $75/hr per guard and is booked through us. It's required for any event that serves alcohol, runs past 10pm, or has more than 100 guests. Plan on roughly 1 guard per 100 guests — we set the final number, and you're welcome to bring your own people on top of ours.
Smoking, drug use, weapons, and illegal substances are strictly prohibited anywhere on the property.
Yes — you're welcome to move things around to fit your setup. All furniture must be returned to its original position before the end of your rental.
Absolutely. The space is yours during your rental window — bring whatever you need to make it your own. Everything must be out by the end of your rental period.
Yes. A cleaning fee ($200–$400 depending on space tier) covers post-event cleanup. You take your belongings and trash — we handle the rest.
We have a basic prep area with a counter and sink — great for catering teams and bar setups. No on-site cooking.
Bartenders ($65/hr) and security guards ($75/hr) are staffed exclusively through us — outside bartenders or security aren't permitted. Bartending includes bar set up, ice, compostable cups, and all equipment to make and chill drinks; clients provide their own ingredients (including garnishes), signage, and banquet permit. For everything else — planners, photographers, DJs, decorators — we can connect you with trusted vendors.
Our entry is ADA compliant. Our bathroom is not fully ADA accessible.
Yes — we've hosted everything from puppy yoga to full concerts. Reach out and we'll work it out.
A signed agreement plus a 50% booking deposit locks your date. For most events that's it — for larger events an additional deposit may be required, and we'll let you know upfront. The booking deposit is non-refundable, but it's never lost to a date change: you can move everything you've paid to a new date within 12 months instead.
Cancellation requests must be submitted in writing — email is fine — during business hours (Mon–Fri, 9am–5pm). The 50% booking deposit is non-refundable, but instead of cancelling you can transfer everything you've paid to a new date within 12 months (one transfer, requested at least 14 days before your event, no fee). Cancel 14 or more days before your event and anything paid beyond the deposit is refunded; less than 14 days out, all payments are non-refundable. Security deposits are refunded within 14 business days after a satisfactory post-event inspection.
No standard deposit is required. For larger events, we may require a deposit — we'll discuss this during the booking process.
Clients are fully responsible for any damage that occurs during their rental. Repair or cleaning costs beyond the deposit will be billed directly.
