Events and Wedding Venue

Located just below Cotton at Riverside Mill in Danville's Historic River District, our modern, spacious venue shines bright along the old canal of the Dan. The view from our event space is beautiful at all hours of the day, although it is especially breathtaking at sunset when the water flowing over the dams is illuminated.

The location is just one reason our unique venue is a one-of-a-kind gathering space. We pride ourselves on providing you and your guests with superior service, complete with a bit of Southern hospitality.

Whether you are planning a corporate party, wedding, bridal shower, birthday party, or reunion, our experienced planners are more than happy to do all the work while you and your guests enjoy the celebration.

* Due to ABC restrictions, no outside alcohol is allowed on site.


We're the Complete Package 

Our 3,750 square foot contemporary event and wedding venue is bright and beautifully lit with vintage Edison-style lighting providing a warm, festive atmosphere. Tables of all shapes and sizes are available and pair well with our mahogany Chivari chairs.

A state-of-the-art audio system is available to provide background music, or you may bring your own playlist to make your special occasion that much more unique. Our spacious lawn and patio area extends the event space even further to take the party outside and enjoy the views of the Dan.

Our History 

Our contemporary event venue is nestled in the old canal of the Dan River. The canal is Danville's newest and most exciting private event venue, crafted as part of the renovation of the former Dan River Mills Research Division.
