ABOUT THE PROPERTY

How many guests can I have?

Our maximum occupancy for the property is 150 people.

Can I have tables and chairs delivered?

You may, but it is not necessary. Each rental at The Main Event includes wood tables on black metal legs and boutique black metal chairs with deep green leather cushions, finished with rattan backing. If you choose not to use these, tables and chairs must be provided by a professional rental company. There is no storage space for holding items. 

Can I bring my own decor?

Yes you may. We ask that nothing be hung on our walls in our front space, even taped. With this policy, we provide rental options to help display your decor. In the back room you may hang decor from our wall brackets, wood beams, or tape up decor as long as it will not puncture the walls of the event center.

Do you have a stage/ arbor? 

Currently everything but tables and chairs must be rented by a professional rental company. We do not provide outdoor furniture.

Do you have a sound system for me to use?

We have a Bluetooth soundbar set up in our Ballroom that is complimentary for guests to use, but all other audio preparations will need to be brought in by the client.

Do you have a TV or projector?

Yes, we have a 55” 4K Roku TV complimentary for clients to use in displaying company logos, greeting messages, videos, and more.

Do you have a kitchen, what is included?

Yes, for light prep only. Our kitchen amenities include a fridge, ice maker, and sink. We have limited preparation utensils so clients must bring whatever is needed for preparing their food.

Do you have parking? 

There is parking available directly in front of the event house on Main Street, with parking extending along downtown side streets nearby as well.

Can I bring my own alcohol? (and serve it myself?)

We do allow alcohol to be served. We ask guests to keep options to beer, wine , and champagne. If you plan to sell alcohol at an event then you will need to get the appropriate licensing to do so.

Can I bring my own caterer/ photographer/ DJ?

Yes. We pride ourselves in being an open-vendor venue for your convenience! We just require food/bar licenses as needed.

All food meant for purchasing requires a valid Idaho Food Handlers License. The kitchen is meant for light prep only.
