About this space

Bighouse Arts have a gorgeous vintage tram onsite!

The Bighouse crew has partly removed seating, and painted and renovated the tram so it's spacious and looking like a treat! With a lovely little outdoor tiki area, the vintage tram is the perfect small venue.

Available to hire for shoots, small events, workshops, and whatever your vintage tram dreams can muster!

Photo Shoot · 8 guests · September 2023
My fiancée and I love vintage stuff . Therefore, the vintage tram is perfect for my Pre-wedding theme photo shoot . The Bighouse Arts team is very helpful. Eileen did an excellent communication. The location is beautiful. We are very happy with the service that we received. If someone wanted to do photo shoot with a tram or wanted to throw a party on a tram , I highly recommend this place . Thank you .
