GALAS & BENEFIT DINNERS

Raise a glass, raise the total

Every fundraiser has the same shape underneath. Welcome people, feed them well, tell the story, and give them a moment to say yes. The Depot holds all four in one room, with a stage for the ask and a floor for the celebration after.

Host the annual gala, the benefit dinner, the silent auction, the awards night for your volunteers. Chambers, churches, schools, booster clubs and community groups all fit under these trusses. Folks who have lived around Gallatin all their lives still light up when they walk in for a charity function.

The room brings its own story. Weathered brick, a metal roof from 1926, a concrete floor that has seen a century of gatherings. Your donors feel it the moment they arrive.

WHAT THE SPACE GIVES YOU

Built for a big ask

01

Room for 500 supporters

Open seating for up to 500 guests. Sell the tables you need, then add a few more when the committee outdoes itself. Sponsor tables up front, general seating behind, and a dance floor waiting for after the program.

02

Auction and display space

About 10,000 square feet means your silent auction tables, sponsor banners and raffle displays get their own lane. Guests can browse without crowding dinner, and a checkout station near the doors sends everyone home quickly.

03

Your own caterer keeps costs down

Zero forced vendors. Choose your caterer, bar service, decorator and entertainment, or lean on donated services. Lower overhead, more for the cause.

04

A story that helps the cause

A 1926 freight depot in the heart of Gallatin gives your invitation a hook and your guests a reason to come early. History sells tickets, and it gives your emcee an opening line.

HOW IT WORKS

Booking, in four steps

01

Tour

Bring your committee. Tours are free and by appointment, and the floor plan makes more sense in person.

02

Hold the date

Check open dates on the calendar, then ask us to hold yours. Availability and pricing come by request, so ask early for a spring or fall gala.

03

Plan with your vendors

Line up your caterer, auctioneer, AV partner and entertainment. No preferred list, no forced vendors. Sketch the auction tables and the stage with us.

04

Event day

Your vendors load in, your volunteers set the tables, your guests arrive. The depot has hosted a century of gatherings. Yours is next.

A great event center, I’d suggest it to any one of my friends.
