Fair Market - Austin, Texas

Tom B.

We chose Fair Market for our event after our CEO, who had attended a coffee market there, recommended it based on its aesthetic and how well it aligned with our event’s theme. We recently hosted a large-scale, two-day event at Fair Market with over 600 attendees, and the venue provided an excellent space that allowed for a diverse range of activities. The open layout gave us the flexibility to seamlessly transition between live demos, panel discussions, networking areas, and coffee service. The outdoor space was a major plus, allowing us to incorporate more active elements like yoga and a ruck run, which our attendees enjoyed.

That said, there are some logistical considerations to keep in mind for anyone planning an event here. The venue's recommended vendors are solid, but they do limit options in some cases, which impacted costs and flexibility. Additionally, given the size and industrial nature of the space, sound control was a challenge. In the future, we would implement more physical barriers, such as drapes, to better separate networking areas from the speaker sections and reposition high-traffic areas like the coffee station to minimize noise disruptions.

Despite these considerations, Fair Market remains a fantastic venue for those looking for an adaptable space with an authentic Austin feel. With proper planning and an understanding of its vendor requirements, it can accommodate a wide range of event formats successfully. We’re looking forward to working with the venue again in the future.

We hosted a ball with over 700 guests and everyone at Fair Market was so wonderful and helped make the night a success! The staff were very professional, prompt, and helpful. I highly recommend Fair Market for your next event!

We had our wedding at Fair Market and it was such a fun and special day! Everyone was raving about the venue and it was the perfect space with a great flow from the ceremony and cocktail hour in the yard under the string lights to the reception inside. The location was so central making it easy for everyone to get to and from hotels and of course bars for the after party. They were also so great to work with and accommodating in the months leading up to the event- we really appreciated it. Highly recommend if you're looking for a wedding venue in Downtown Austin with outdoor space- not many have it!

This is the first time I was there for an event and I thought it was a great place for this event so I think it would be good for most events that aren't huge but aren't small. Outside and inside areas perfect for for any of that really weddings music whatever you want.

Great venue with indoor and outdoor spaces! Quaint and intimate enough to be close to your favorite artists but large enough to have plenty of space to boogey down!

Food trucks are outside if you get the munchies and a tractor for when you wanna take drunken photos with your friends.

Great indoor / outdoor venue in the heart of the near east side with easy access from downtown and surrounding neighborhoods. Parking is easy with valet otherwise it can be a bit of a search but right across the street Saltillo has a big garage.
