FAQs about Top Small Venues in Dallas, TX

In short: the earlier, the better! Small venues tend to get booked faster than larger venues due to their affordable prices and good sizes. And keep in mind that people need smaller venues for a wide variety of events, from business meetings to wedding receptions. That’s why we suggest you consider booking a venue even 5 months in advance. In case you’re unsure about availability options, contact the venue manager and find out all of the possibilities.

Depending on the size of the rented venue, they can usually accommodate from around 40 to 100 people. But don’t worry if you’re unsure about the number of guests that will be able to comfortably fit in your chosen venue - most places indicate their capacity on the venue marketplace listing (such as Tagvenue) or their respective websites.

Small venues in Dallas come in all shapes and sizes, so it comes as no surprise that you’ll find all kinds of rental fees in the city. The prices range from $700 up to $8000 minimum spend. Hourly rates average around $75 per hour but you can also rent the place and pay a rental fee for the whole session - prices start at $850 and reach $1200 per session. It is also possible to book a place that offers special packages with prices ranging from $16 to $70 per person.  (Based on data from Tagvenue.)

You’ll be delighted with the wide selection of small venues in every part of the city! Downtown Dallas is filled with fantastic restaurants - if you choose any of the spots there, be sure to relish spectacular meals and great cocktails. We also recommend booking a private dining room in one of Oak Lawn’s eateries. But in case you’re in a mood for a party in Lower Greenville, don’t hesitate to check out that area as well and book the place that steals your heart.
