Check out the commonly asked questions below.

  • We would love the opportunity to show you the Event Hall and discuss the details of your event! Simply fill out the inquiry form to get started, and we will reach out to you. Please note that tours of the Event Hall are by appointment only.

  • The exact time frame is to be discussed when you book the space. Typically, corporate events are set for 10-hours, and weddings are 12 hours. Either way, your rental period cannot extend past midnight. Hourly rates are available(not on Saturday) at a 3-hour minimum

  • Our available dates are booked on a first-come, first-served basis. Especially during peak season, it is highly recommended that you make your reservation 6 months to 1 year in advance. Your date is officially booked when we receive 50% of your rental fee.

  • Yes! The Event Hall provides 185 white chairs, 16 60” rounds, 6 8’ rectangles, 1 6’ rectangle, and 10 whiskey barrels. There are also 15 rustic bar stools included at the Event Hall bar. Please note, linens are not provided.

  • While light hors d’oeuvres and foods are permitted, any food requiring on-site prep, burners or coolers must be provided and served by a licensed caterer or bartender. Drop-off catering is not allowed.

    The Event Hall has a catering kitchen for all setup and prep needs. The catering kitchen includes an industrial-sized ice machine, three compartment sink, trash cans, large refrigerator, and prep tables.

    Catering Staff must carry liability insurance. The Host is responsible for obtaining copies and providing to Chatt. Whiskey.

  • No, we are all about BYOB - bring your own beverages! This benefits you as Hosts when it comes to costs, but it also gives you the power to pick your favorite brands/types of alcoholic beverages and even choose your style of bartending service (more on that later!).

    As an add on, we can offer a whiskey tasting station at the bar or one of our signature cocktails for a unique guest experience.

    Ticketed events or events with a cash bar require a vendor with a mobile liquor license.

    Our bar also has two tap handles and an industrial ice machine that can be utilized. There are two bar coolers available behind the bar for all refrigeration needs.

    FINISHING NOTE: Bottles of Chattanooga Whiskey are available for purchase for your event at a 15% discount.

  • The Chattanooga Whiskey Event Hall has an open vendor policy. This flexibility allows you the freedom to choose vendors that best align with your budget and vision for the event. On the flip side, we can provide you with some stellar recommendations of local vendors we’ve had the pleasure to work with.

    For all 12 hour rental weddings, Licensee must have an event planner or month of coordinator who is present beginning at first vendor load-in, or first guest arrival, and may not leave until the end of the event, or upon checking out with the Event Hall Manager on duty. The event planner or month of coordinator may not be a family member, guest, or attendee.

    If your event includes a bar, you must hire licensed and insured bartenders. We suggest 1 bartender for every 75 guests.

  • Certainly! Please feel free to use your own decorations or contract out any decorations you wish to use to make your event special and unique to your needs. Extra string lights or other chandeliers can be hung from the rafters, draping for your ceremony backdrop, photo booths, and signage just to name a few. Any wax candles must be enclosed in a container that is higher than the candles flame. This rule ensures the safety of your event and, of course, our whiskey! The use of glitter, silly string, fog machines, confetti, and fireworks is strictly prohibited. Sparklers or bubbles at your wedding exit are OK!

  • An Event Hall representative will be present on the day of the event when you need to enter the facility to unlock the building, and again for the duration of the event. However, a representative may not be onsite for the entire day. Key times that a representative is needed onsite are to be communicated by the Licensee. For wedding-related events, a Planner/Month of Coordinator is required.

  • We have up to 120 parking spaces available around the building, however more cars can fit with a contracted valet. Street parking is also available on Riverfront Pkwy.

    Note: Any vehicle left on Chattanooga Whiskey property more than 24 hours after an event is subject to towing.

  • Unfortunately, guided tours are not available at this time. Crafting the perfect whiskey demands our full attention.

  • No concerns here, we’ve never had an issue

  • Yes! There are no steps into the building or inside the venue. The main entrance into the event space has a ramp.
