FAQs about Top Unique Event Spaces in Atlanta, GA

We know you don’t want to hear: “it depends,” but it really does depend. Many different factors can have an impact on the total cost: the size of your event, the prestige of the venue, extra services, etc. In general, prices for renting a unique event space for a mid-range event typically run from $100 to $200 per hour. Some venues will charge you per session, in which case expect to pay around $1200 to $4950. (All data from Tagvenue.)

Check out some of our suggestions:

  • Center for Puppetry Arts - Located near the Arts Center MARTA station, this unusual venue offers a range of vibrant spaces that can be used for multiple purposes. Whether you're throwing a kid's birthday party with a creative workshop or a corporate event, nothing is impossible here.
  • Willow Bar – Set in a landscaped garden, this Buckhead-based bar is the perfect spot for outdoor celebrations. With intimate nooks and lantern-lit pathways, Willow Bar is ready to impress your guests.

You can find unique event spaces all over Atlanta. The question is: what type of venue are you looking for? The city’s core areas, that is Downtown, Midtown and Buckhead, offer a little bit of everything: remarkable restaurants, buzzing clubs, dive bars, cocktail lounges, rooftop gardens… you name it, they have it! If you’re looking for something hip and eclectic, check out Eastside Atlanta. That’s where you’ll find some of the city’s coolest neighborhoods, such as Little Five Points or Old Fourth Ward, filled with quirky, one-of-a-kind venues. The latter is also a great choice if you’re into industrial vibes, with lofts and converted warehouses ready to host a variety of events.

The short answer is: no. But this can work to your advantage. For example, bringing your own food and beverages can help you save some money. Some venues will have a list of preferred suppliers, though. If the availability of on-site catering is an important factor for you, you can use Tagvenue’s filters to only browse those venues that offer this option.

Your Guide to Renting Unique Event Spaces in Atlanta, GA

What Makes a Unique Venue Stand Out?

It’s more than decor. It's the full experience. A unique event space has:

  • Bold design or themed interiors (think: tropical bar, colonial mansion, neon-lit lounge)
  • Unexpected locations – like converted warehouses, tucked-away speakeasies, or rooftops with skyline views
  • Atmosphere – lighting, music, layout, and staff all play a role
  • Details that surprise – such as vintage furniture, immersive lighting, or interactive elements

Whether it’s a moody underground bar or a playful retro diner, uniqueness comes from the combination of space, setting, and energy.

Find Unusual Event Spaces in Atlanta

Speakeasies & Hidden Bars
Perfect for intimate gatherings, cocktail parties, or secret pop-ups.

  • Top Pick: VaultAtl (Downtown Atlanta). VaultAtl is small, exclusive, and gives off that secret-club energy that makes a true speakeasy shine. With a 15-person standing capacity and $250 per hour rate, it's the ideal choice for an intimate cocktail night or underground pop-up with serious vibes.

Restaurants with Global Flair
More than just food—these venues bring immersive decor, cultural flavor, and unforgettable vibes.

Rooftop Lounges & Terraces
Views + cocktails = instant atmosphere. Great for sunset dinners, birthdays, or launch events.

  • Top Pick: Midtown Beach Club – OK, it’s technically a beach club, but it’s on a rooftop and brings full-on Miami energy to Midtown Atlanta. With space for 300 standing and a $7500 minimum spend, it’s the go-to spot for sunset parties, big birthdays, or brand events with a view.

Offbeat & Repurposed Spaces
Movie theaters, galleries, bookstores, studios, even dance halls—many can be transformed into unforgettable party spots.

  • ELEY PHOTO STUDIO (Kirkwood)
    $85/hour flat

Unique Event Spaces with All-Inclusive Packages

Some unique event spaces in Atlanta do offer all-inclusive packages, but it really depends on the venue. 

  • Hi-Def Events of Avondale (Belvedere Park): Known for full-day rates starting at $1999, this space often includes tables, chairs, lighting, sound systems, and even staff support. Great for large events up to 250 standing.
  • Diva’s Dance Salon (Dresden East): A stylish event hall that’s especially popular for celebrations and quinceañeras. For $1200/day, many bookings here come with add-ons like DJ services, décor options, and security.
  • Content Penthouse (Downtown Atlanta): Tucked away in the heart of the city, this space blends chic design with a cosmopolitan edge. It feels like a stylish private lounge you’d find in New York or São Paulo. Perfect for intimate dinners, networking nights, or brand experiences with cultural punch for only $175/hour. 

How to Choose the Right Unique Venue

Match the Space to the Occasion
Planning a chic engagement dinner? Go for a stylish private dining room. Throwing a bold birthday bash? A warehouse with customizable lighting might be the move.

Know Your Guest Count
Venue size matters. Estimate your guest list early so you’re not cramming a big group into a boutique space—or booking a loft that feels half-empty.

Define What “Unique” Means to You
Are you after mood lighting, a themed interior, quirky furniture, or something completely unexpected? Decide what kind of wow-factor you want.

Lock in the Neighborhood
Want something central? Explore Midtown and Edgewood. For edgier or more affordable options, try West End, East Atlanta Village, or Old Fourth Ward.

Stick to Your Budget
You can find stylish venues at every price point. Use Tagvenue’s filters to compare spaces by rate, capacity, and amenities, without the guesswork.

Food & Drink Options
Many venues offer in-house catering or bar service. Want to bring your own vendors or alcohol? Look for BYOB-friendly spots or venues with flexible policies.

Bonus Tip: Think Beyond Traditional

Atlanta’s creative scene means you don’t have to stick to standard venues. Host a private dinner in an art gallery, throw a party in a recording studio, or rent out a micro-cinema for a birthday screening. If it fits your theme and guest list, chances are Tagvenue has a space for it.
