The Loft & Event Space at 170 Main

The Event Space at 170 Main is a flexible event venue in Dansville, New York, suited to organisers planning weddings, bridal and baby showers, birthday celebrations, dinners, meetings, classes, ceremonies and informal gatherings. The renovated ground-floor space offers a practical setting that can be arranged for both social and business occasions, with the freedom to bring in food, decorations and other event essentials.

The venue provides round and long tables for seating and styling, together with chairs and useful preparation facilities. A kitchenette includes a sink and microwave, while a refrigerator and freezer are available for food and drinks brought to the venue. Event organisers can also request access to a PA system, podium, Bluetooth connection and a large television screen for presentations, slideshows, streaming or karaoke. The property includes two large bathrooms, with showers available, and parking can be found nearby on Main Street, Ossian Street and in the village lot.

Bookings are available for half-day or full-day use, subject to the venue calendar and confirmation by the management team. Organisers complete a request form, agree the building-use terms and pay a deposit or booking fee. The venue does not arrange the room layout, so clients can plan the table and seating configuration around their event. Cleaning and access arrangements are explained in advance.

A catering option is available through the venue’s partnership with Scovill’s Grill Catering. Upstairs, The Loft at 170 Main provides accommodation for groups of up to 14, making it useful for wedding parties, retreats, family occasions and guests travelling to the Finger Lakes region. Together, the event room and nearby accommodation offer a convenient base for celebrations and small corporate gatherings.
