Several 623 events and dining experiences require a ticket - but some don’t. Tickets must be purchased online through EventBrite [623 ticketed events are linked through this website] at least 24 hours before the event. Most events are announced weeks in advance and frequently sell out. Due to the unique nature of hosted events at 623 Venue & Events, we cannot accept walk-ins.
Bar 623 is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday, starting May 1. This bar is meant to be open and consistently accessible to the community. Bar 623 will host pop-up dinners, as well as local food truck vendors to add value and creative food expression into the Lyon Street | Midtown block!
Additionally, we source from local vendors to host private events - such as a corporate dinner or special celebration! Interested in hosting a private event or celebration ? Click HERE

All menus are posted before tickets go on sale for ticketed events.
In addition to our rotating culinary offerings, we also cater events hosted in our space, utilizing a small but reputable list of vendors that source and serve in alignment with our values around hospitality. Curious of who’s on this list? Email events@venue623events.com with any and all questions regarding vendors, dietary restrictions, or availability.
Please note: Due to the ambiguity of hosting rotating chefs and culinary teams, we cannot always guarantee accommodation for a special dietary restriction or request, though some chefs and menus offer more options and availability than others. Our concept is dynamic, so if one menu does not align with your dietary needs, it is very likely another event or menu will. Thanks for your understanding!
