Versatile 1300 Sq Ft Event Space with Kitchen and Bar.

tl;dr

Space
A 93 sqm (1,000 sq ft) basement event space and licensed bar in Kensington Market, Toronto, available for short-term rental. The room is a controlled blackout box with theatrical lighting rather than daylight, suited to evening presentations and after dark brand activations.
Best For
Emerging designer fashion shows and collection previews, cocktail receptions and press day launches with full bar service, sample sale space using the installed fitting rooms and garment racks, art exhibition and gallery premiere nights, and content studio or video production days requiring a lighting controlled interior.
Standout Features
Fully licensed bar with service counter and a complete kitchen suitable for catering setup, retail infrastructure already fitted including fitting rooms, garment racks, display counters and a lockable stock room, house sound and video system with an in house DJ on request, and elevator access plus on site parking for load in. Security system, air conditioning and heating are included in the day rate, and the space is vetted by Fashion Week Venues for event use.
Location
The 510 Spadina streetcar is roughly 3 minutes on foot, the 505 Dundas streetcar about 5 minutes, and St Patrick subway station on Line 1 about 12 minutes, in the M5T district between Kensington Market and Chinatown. The immediate streets are dense independent retail, cafés and restaurants, so guests arrive through active pedestrian footfall and crews can hire nearby kerb space for daytime load in.
Availability
Minimum rental is one day with a maximum run of seven consecutive days, at a day rate of CA$2,100 (approximately EUR 1,303) with extras quoted on a brief-based pricing model. Book four to six weeks ahead in Toronto, and six to eight weeks for September and October when Toronto fashion week programming and festival season compress availability.
How to Book
Send a brief with your dates, guest numbers and format, and we confirm availability within 24 hours with no charge until confirmed. Liquor and event permit paperwork, door and bar staffing, and fit-out coordination are handled by our team on the brand's behalf. Request availability now to hold your date.
