About
Tinker House Events is a wedding and event venue on the second floor of a 1915 landmark at East 16th Street and the Monon Trail in Indianapolis. Exposed brick, timber beams, wide-plank floors and big windows with city views give the space its warm, industrial character.
Capacity
Up to 200 seated or 230 standing guests, with room for a dance floor, bar and DJ or band. Provider Café, our neighborhood café downstairs, can be added for cocktail hour or overflow space. Guests reach the second floor by elevator or stairs.
What is included
Weddings include 12 hours of venue access, with more hours available. The space is heated and air-conditioned. Tinker House holds the liquor license, so bar service comes from our in-house beverage program, and food comes from our curated catering partners. Couples choose their own DJ or band, bring their own décor and may work with an outside planner, or upgrade to our In-House Coordination for full wedding-day execution.
Parking
On-site parking on the east and south sides of the building, plus overflow along Lewis Street and the Monon Trail.
