About this space

The 1st Floor is an Event Space in Dogpatch Studios. The space's most distinctive quality is its industrial-scale, high-ceilinged volume that accommodates audience-facing setups.

Design: The 1st Floor presents an industrial warehouse interior with exposed steel beams, tall ceilings and dark finishes. The room includes a balcony-level that overlooks the main floor and generous sightlines from multiple angles.

Features: The 1st Floor provides venue Wi‑Fi, an in-room PA system and speakers, and permission to play your own music. The main floor can be cleared to create a dance area or arranged as rows of seating, and the space includes rigging points and stage-adjacent areas for crew or equipment.

Ideal for: The 1st Floor is best for creative and production-led groups seeking a hybrid presentation-and-reception layout with clear sightlines and an open floorplan.

What sets it apart: The 1st Floor has turnkey simulcast capability and integrated multi-floor production connectivity for live streaming and broadcast distribution.
