Questions people ask before they come

Go to McGowan Hall at 1305 N Delaware St, in the Old Northside just north of downtown Indianapolis. The Columbian is on the building's lower level, so once you are inside, head downstairs.

McGowan Hall has a 65-space parking lot on site. It is shared with anything else happening in the building that night.

No, and we would rather you knew now. The only way to the lower level is a flight of stairs. There is no elevator in the building, and there is no accessible restroom on the lower level.

Upstairs is different: the Grand Hall and the main floor restrooms are wheelchair accessible.

Jazz from the Christopher Pitts Trio on the first Friday of every month. Doors open at 8pm, the music runs from 9 until 11, there is no cover, the bar is open and a limited amount of food is available.

Beyond First Friday, the calendar is still being planned. Call the hall office on (463) 842-1265, 9am to 6:30pm every day, and ask what is coming up.

No. The bar is full service and sits in the room itself. Outside alcohol is not permitted anywhere on the property, and that includes the parking lot.

Fifty, seated. The tables and chairs are already set out, so a private group of up to fifty walks into a room that is ready.

Yes. Sunday to Friday it is $450 for six hours or $600 for twelve; on a Saturday it is $500 or $800. Your own caterer is welcome and there is no food or drink minimum. Private nights are booked through McGowan Hall, where the room is listed as the Bar Lounge. Private night details.

Jacob Smith, the Events and Operations Manager. Email events@mcgowanhall.org with a link to your music and the dates you have open. What to include.

Yes. It is the music room on McGowan Hall's lower level, run by the same people, at the same address and phone number. The rest of the building, including the Grand Hall, rents through McGowan Hall.
