Frequently Asked Questions

The rental includes tables, chairs, complete sound system with tablets and music subscriptions, TVs with slideshow capability, and a prep area with industrial fridge. You get 14-hour access from 10am to midnight, so everything you need for setup, the event, and same-night cleanup is covered in one price.

Yes, cleanup must be completed before midnight when the rental period ends. The 14-hour window from 10am gives you time for setup, your event, and thorough cleanup without rushing, but the space needs to be ready for the next booking.

Catering isn't included in the rental, so you bring your own. The prep area includes an industrial fridge for food storage and staging, which handles volume for events up to 150 guests and keeps hot and cold items at proper temperatures during service.

Event liability insurance is required for all rentals. Division AV can help coordinate this requirement during booking, and most policies are affordable one-time purchases that protect both you and the venue from liability during your event.

Yes, renting both levels lets you run presentations downstairs for 150 people while using the 100-person upstairs for breakout sessions or networking. The AV system and TVs on both floors support simultaneous programming without equipment conflicts.

The space, amenities, and pricing are the same regardless of event type. What changes is how you use the dual-level layout and 14-hour window—weddings typically need ceremony and reception separation, while parties might use one continuous space or split age groups between floors.

No, the venue is exclusively for private events like corporate functions, weddings, quinceañeras, and family celebrations. This ensures your group has complete privacy and control over the space without interference from other bookings or public access during your rental period.

Booking timeline depends on your event date and Grand Rapids event season. Popular dates like spring and summer weekends fill months ahead, while weekday and off-season availability is often shorter notice. Touring the space early helps secure preferred dates since it's a brand new facility attracting bookings.
