The Austin

The Austin is a wedding and event venue in Kansas City's Crossroads Arts District, offering a distinctive urban setting for celebrations and gatherings. Its industrial character is paired with warm details and flexible spaces, giving event planners room to shape the layout around the occasion, whether that means a ceremony, reception, rehearsal dinner or corporate gathering.

The venue can host up to 220 seated guests or 280 standing. Indoor and outdoor areas allow different parts of an event to take place in separate settings, including a covered courtyard suitable for ceremonies. Inside, planners will find a bar area, lounge furniture and spaces that can be arranged for dining, drinks or socialising. A bridal suite and groom's room provide private preparation space, while an on-site kitchen is available for catering teams.

Venue hire includes tables, chairs, lounge furniture and access to the event spaces, with set-up time included in the stated package. A ceremony package and bar service are available as options. Bar packages include trained bartenders, glassware, mixers and non-alcoholic drinks, with choices of beer, wine and spirits. The venue also welcomes outside caterers, subject to its requirements for licensing, insurance and serving staff, and offers an open vendor policy with approval conditions for suppliers outside its recommended list.

Located on Cherry Street, The Austin places guests close to the Crossroads neighbourhood's arts and entertainment. Event planners can enquire about availability or arrange a venue tour through the venue's sales team.
