FAME Venue

I just had an event at Fame and I have a few things to cheer, and a few things that could have been better. I’ll start with my dislikes. First, I wouldn’t recommend this venue to non-​profits on a budget. It took us some negotiating to get a deal that worked within our budget. Don’t bother trying to negotiate too much. They drive a hard bargain. Next, there was lack of communication about what date we could reserve the venue for our event. We were confirmed for one date, but then something else was being booked that took priority, so we had no choice but to be booted to another date. I would have appreciated earlier notice that our original date already had competition.
On a more positive note, I really have to cheer the attention the staff gave us on the day of the event. Francesca, Karl and their team were responsive to us and were able to get us what we needed with no delay. It really took a load of stress off of us. We needed some decoration help, audio support and equipment movement, etc., it was all done swiftly and professionally. Just a word of warning, I don’t think the venue is well-​equipped for a live band, as they have one pair of speakers for the DJ and a tiny stage next the DJ booth that was not big enough for a band to play.
All in all, it was a solid venue. Maybe not the prettiest on the inside, but it has character. Oh yeah, and parking is a pain if you’re looking for something cheap/​free. But there is a sizable lot with underground structure right next to the venue if you’re willing to pay $ 20 for the night.
I’d recommend it if you have the budget, are looking for a fresh/​different venue, and want a location for about 200 ppl. It’s in a good location with lots of foot traffic on Broadway and plenty else to do in the area.

Hey everyone I have to tell you about this amazing party our company had last night. It was a Halloween party coordinated by our in house event planner and the staff of FAME Venue. We were in the upstairs part of this really cool historic building on Broadway st. It’s amazingly large, has a huge dance floor and 3 bars a sound system and a stage. Apparently its home to bands like Blondie, Primus, Dead Kennedys and various other punk bands I cant remember them all (4 makers marks and cokes will do that to you.) But now its a huge hall they use for parties. And Wow do they know how to throw a party. The place looked great. They spent a ton of time on the decorations. The coordinator and managers made sure every one of us was happy and taken care of. The Bartenders were totally on it They were super friendly and funny, usually with a crowd this large you have to wait and wait to get served not at this place. Totally Professional! The drinks were perfect and not to pricey. Even the parking was easy. They have a lot right next door cant go wrong with that in this city!
If your planning a party of any kind definitely check into FAME venue on Broadway street. There not pricey at all and they are super easy to work with.
Thank you so much FAME for helping make our party the most memorable one we have ever had. We all never laughed so much and just cant Thank you enough for such a great experience. We Will be Seeing you next Halloween and will be calling you to help with our Christmas party.
Best Wishes
