800 Congress

Raw + Refined in Central Austin 

If 800 Congress were a person, we would be crushing hard. The Man, or Venue, of mystery would roll up on his vintage motorcycle and sweep us off our feet while we snuggle into his tailor made leather jacket. All with a whiff of expensive cologne and beard oil scenting the wind as we rock the night away.

800 Congress is just the mix of raw and refined that Austin itself is famous for. So, it’s only right that it is located in the center of downtown Austin, just down the street from the Capitol building.

The interior of the space feels wide open, with original brick and foundation walls and a breezy outdoor patio. This makes accenting 800 Congress a cinch, from flowery weddings to back-lit tropical bars to elegant soft seating, it has seen everything. On the south wall of the venue lies a Matthew McConaughey mural from the movie ‘Dazed and Confused’ that is sure to have your guests saying ‘alright, alright, alright.’ We could gaze at it all night.

800 Congress allows full catering service from the decked out catering kitchen, and provides your guests with a full service bar staff. A state of the art A/V system plus an outdoor facing video wall will ensure that your music, slideshows, and photo streams will go off without a hitch.
