Very clean with multiple restrooms. It's also accessible for those with disabilities. It has a stage and already has a simple elevated look which limits the need for tons of decoration. It's black owned and located in the 4th Ave District. The owners are super nice, helpful and professional. The rental fees are very reasonable in comparison to other local event spaces! It comes highly recommended!

I have had the pleasure of attending two events at this venue over the last few months. The first…read moreevent was hosted by an organization I'm a part of--the J. Mason Davis Leadership society. We had a Headshot Happy Hour event here that went very well. Most recently, my Kiwanis club had a Juneteenth event here to raise scholarship money for kids in the Birmingham City school system. Again, our event went very well. The venue is spacious, customizable (the lighting, dance floor, etc), and has great features. If you need a venue in Birmingham for an event, check them out!

There were TVs/monitors on the wall which could be used for monitors to enhance speaker and audience participation. This is a great place to host wedding receptions, seminars, community events and/or large parties. The right interior designer could turn this into a magical place. I would definitely utilize this space for my events

It was a very nice venue. It was great seeing familiar faces. The selection was really nice…read more Everyone was very pleasant behind the table. I enjoyed some new things I've never had before. The table center pieces were pretty. Music was fun. The only HUGE negative was I am not someone that gets hot.....ever. I was sweating. I was uncomfortable. I wanted to eat and get the heck out of there. Someone failed and didn't lower the ac ahead of time for that large space.

I came here for the Birmingham restaurant week kickoff…read more There was lots of amazing food and desserts. The only negative thing I have to say is that it's July and it did not even feel like the air conditioning was on there. I was like sweating. I wasn't very comfortable. I don't think I'd wanna have a personal event there like a wedding, etc.. The bathrooms were pretty clean when I visited them, which was a plus. This is my first time being here and it's definitely a huge event space.

Their production was perfect with, the stage scenery, costumes, music and acting. The overall production was amazing. The theatre itself feels like home. I'm not from the Birmingham metro area, but I am a native Alabamian and this place feels like home. The beauty and the quaint coziness is what makes this a great cultural space. I can't wait for the next event!

It's a busy time of year with holiday parties but they made it absolutely perfect. The tables were set and ready by noon so that florals could be placed well in advance. They have an over-achiever event director, Courtney Swaid Mince, that treats us vendors just as professionally as she treats her clients. According to my client, Courtney created additional decor without additional charge. And imagine our surprise as a vendor to see the votives we used with the table centerpieces were cleaned and packed along with the florals for us to pick -up immediately after the event. Who does that?! We look forward to working with B&A again.

The space is beautiful, thoughtfully designed, and created such an elegant atmosphere for our event. The owners went above and beyond by meeting my vendors while I was at the graduation ceremony, which took so much stress off my shoulders. Their kindness and willingness to accommodate made the entire experience seamless. The restrooms were spotless and absolutely lovely a detail that definitely didn't go unnoticed. I also fell in love with their unique serpentine table setup. I had never seen that design before, and it added such a modern, upscale touch to the event. Even better, they had tablecloth colors that matched my color scheme perfectly! If you're looking for a beautiful venue with exceptional customer service, I highly recommend The Collective on 4th. I would give them five stars without hesitation!
