Extravaganza Depot Reception Hall

Finally got a chance to check out this event space! The lovely folks at Lupus Piedmont hosted their annual Mardi Gras Gala here and it’s such a cool event space.
From the outside, I would have never expected such potential. The large building is planted very near the tracks off of Tryon & Dalton — just a few minutes from Uptown. Now, I’m sure the space varies per event, but the folks at Lupus decorated it beautifully. Tons of tables, a large bar to the right, dance floor near the stage and plenty of walking around room. Plus, there are two old train cars outside the side doors that are perfect for additional entertainment options — the event last night had a fortune teller and a bones reader in these cars.
Per Extravaganza Depot’s website, it looks like they are full service event planning and execution company. Capacity wise, the site reads 350 seated and 600 standing and there are adequate restroom facilities and probably 200 parking spaces (total guess here). There aren’t too many well put together venues in Charlotte that host these types of numbers, but Extravaganza Depot does offer a great option!
