The Wool Factory

The Wool Factory is an event venue in Charlottesville, Virginia, set within a restored 19th-century textile mill. Its original industrial character gives the venue a distinctive setting for weddings, corporate functions and private celebrations, while a range of spaces makes it possible to tailor the layout to the occasion and guest list.

Organisers can choose from several indoor rooms, including the Main Hall, the Workshop Loft and private dining spaces at Broadcloth Restaurant. The venue also has a ceremony lawn and an outdoor courtyard, offering options for ceremonies, receptions and gatherings that move between indoor and outdoor areas. Depending on the space selected, events can range from small dinners to large celebrations. The venue states that it can host groups from 10 to 570 guests across its property and event spaces.

In-house catering and drinks are part of the offer, with menus prepared by the venue's culinary team. Bookings can include the event space, food and beverage, tableware and selected furniture. Couples planning a wedding can enquire about ceremony locations, reception arrangements and getting-ready spaces. The venue also accommodates corporate dinners and other event formats, so organisers can discuss a setup suited to their programme.

With its historic architecture, several room sizes and outdoor areas, The Wool Factory gives event planners a choice of settings within one property. The team handles event enquiries directly, and planners can provide details such as the occasion, date and expected attendance to begin discussing arrangements.
