Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring my own external caterer for my event?

While our Usual and Premium packages include exceptional in-house barista services and curated snacks, we do allow external caterers for specialized dietary or cultural needs. However, this must be coordinated with our Event Management team in advance to ensure they meet our venue's operational and safety standards.

Is technical support available during the event?

Yes, all of our packages include access to our state of the art AV equipment, including projectors and 360 degree sound systems. If you book the fully managed Unusual Package, a Dedicated Account Executive and technical staff will be on site to actively manage the live streams and troubleshoot any issues instantly.

How far in advance do I need to book the event space?

Because our amphitheater style space is highly sought after by local startups and international corporates, we strongly recommend booking at least 3 to 4 weeks in advance. This lead time allows us to properly arrange any requested movable wall adjustments, custom coffee creations, or live-streaming setups.
