Common House Charlottesville
A Mod Social Club
Steeped in romantic elegance and exciting downtown energy, the Common House is a highly sought-after, three-level event space perfect for bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, send-off brunch, welcome parties, wedding ceremonies and receptions.
Events are custom tailored and each of the three main event spaces can be rented stand-alone or paired with another. Couples enjoy all-inclusive dining, beverage and furnishing services and a built-in rain plan.
Host a welcome party or cocktail hour on the spacious third floor rooftop terrace where 360-degree city views stretch to Lewis Mountain, UVA and Carter’s Mountain and nighttime stars shine with brilliance. First-level Vinegar Hall is a modern, curated art gallery suitable for both intimate events and parties up to 90 guests. The private library is perfect for family-style dinners or upscale cocktail soirées. Larger parties can opt for a full club buyout, planning a Sunday celebration across all three floors, including the rooftop.
The Location
Setting
Located steps from the historic Downtown Mall, Common House offers three floors of elevated modern design that's conveniently close to everything.
Things To Do
Charlottesville is home to thriving orchards, farms, and more than 40 wineries that inspire unforgettable restaurant experiences. Hiking in Shenandoah National Park, renowned river kayaking, and championship golf offer thrills while a celebrated theater and local live music scene entertain. Our stages are well stocked with highly coveted acts. In fact, Charlottesville is where Dave Matthews Band and Coran Capshaw's Red Light Management — the largest independent music management company in the world — got their start. For a taste of history, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, James Madison’s Montpelier, and James Monroe’s Highland offer guided glimpses into the Founding Fathers’ legacies.
