Thank you for considering Ghost Baby to host a private party. We truly appreciate the opportunity to bring your vision to life in our unique space. Our team is committed to making your event a memorable experience that exceeds your expectations and leaves a lasting impression on your guests.
Our space consists of two main areas: The Rattle Room and our Den. One space or both are able to be reserved depending on how many guests you are hoping to host and depending on your vision for your event.
A hand-crafted, ornate bar styled after a baby’s rattle is the centerpiece of this room that doubles as an undercover hideaway from the everyday and as the gateway to the classically appointed Ghost Baby Den. Convene a hushed conversation on one of the plush sofas circling the room, or join lively exchanges pulled up to the bar.
This space may host private parties of up to 40 guests.
INTIMATE/FLEXIBLE SPACE
MAIN EVENT SPACE
Denizens and first-timers, alike, are greeted by opulent simplicity as they’re ushered into the effervescently luminous, acoustically brilliant, half-domed clubroom and pause to take in the surroundings. A spotlit, velvet-curtained stage commands attention even before a single note escapes from the ever-changing, eclectic omnibus of artists. Slide into a bountiful banquette or take your place front and center at a lamplit, marble bistro table and peruse a sparkling list of libations, custom crafted to complement the ambience and perfect your evening.
*The Den is available for private parties before 7 p.m., but after that, a full-day buyout is required due to room setup limitations.
This space may host up to 120 seated guests and up to 140 when all tables and chairs are removed.
While our Rattle Room does not have live music, it offers a flexible space for mingling, unlike the Den, where guests must remain seated during performances. It operates on a first-come, first-served basis, accommodating up to 60 guests, though we reserve space for 20 guests in case of early arrivals or extended reservations in the Den. Also keep in mind that being in a tunnel, guests in our Den must walk through the Rattle Room to reach their seats. A host will directly escort them from the host stand to their seats so as not to disturb your event.
MAY WE BRING IN OUR OWN CATERERS OR DO WE HAVE TO PICK FROM A PREFERRED LIST?
While Ghost Baby offers a one-of-a-kind experience, being 40 feet below street level means we don’t have an in-house kitchen for on-site food preparation. We partner with Kristen at Delightmoore Catering as their team knows our space like no other and can bring practically any kind of cuisine on site.
Catering is only permitted for private events in our Den.
LIVE ENTERTAINMENT
Ghost Baby loves when live entertainment echoes through its tunnel. Should your event need live entertainment - we got you covered! All live music must be booked through our sound engineer, Justin. He's happy to find you anything from a solo artist, to a large band, to a DJ to fit your vision.
IS YOUR VENUE ALL ABILITY ACCESSIBLE?
While we're 4 floors below the Queen City, our venue is fully accessible for all to enjoy. Stairs descend to our Rattle Room, but an elevator is also available for all guests.
PARKING
Ghost Baby is hidden away underneath the Queen City. While unable to accommodate valet due to City Parking Enforcement,Ghost Baby is lucky enough to have 2 parking garages only 1 block away at Mercer Commons Garage and Washington Park Garage. Street parking nearby is also available and signage is posted for restrictions.
ARE TABLES & CHAIRS PROVIDED? WHAT TYPE DO YOU OFFER?
Our venue is lined in plush cushioned booths and plenty of tables and chairs are available for guests to cozy up in.
We have limited folding tables and black linens on site you may use for catering.
VENUE RENTAL INVESTMENT
Our venue rental investment is the initial cost of using our space here at Ghost Baby. This varies greatly depending on the day, time, and size of your event.
DO I NEED TO SCHEDULE A TOUR OR CAN I JUST STOP BY?
While the ghosts can’t really leave our space, our venue is not staffed 24/7. Please email us to schedule a tour if you would like to take a look around the space to be sure it is perfect for your vision.
