A St. Louis Venue for Event Professionals

Lumen provides the venue for your agreed rental period, normal trash liners and bags, basic cleaning consumables, normal post-event housekeeping, venue turnover and routine building maintenance. You and your vendors arrange event furniture and rentals, linens, tableware, food and drinks, event staffing, decor, lighting, setup and teardown unless your agreement expressly includes an item. We welcome your own licensed caterer and event planner. Extraordinary cleanup is not included.

Before leaving, you and your vendors remove personal property, decorations, food and service equipment, complete normal teardown, place trash in designated receptacles and leave the venue reasonably orderly. Follow any event-specific cleanup rules and complete removal within your agreed rental period. Lumen supplies normal trash bags and basic cleaning consumables and handles normal post-event housekeeping. Extraordinary cleanup and any agreed charges are addressed in your rental agreement.

Lumen is operated by Hive Events.

Lumen can be considered for weddings, receptions, private dinners, corporate gatherings, networking, training, panels, launches, nonprofit events, birthdays, showers and other private celebrations, subject to event requirements.

Standard inquiries start 30 days ahead. For something sooner, text LUMEN + your date + estimated guest count to 314-704-1979. We’ll tell you whether an exception may be possible; no availability is promised.

Bring a licensed caterer or qualified alcohol-service provider to confirm and arrange the permits, licensing, insurance and service requirements that apply to your event. The booker coordinates this with the provider and Lumen before booking. Do not assume a food-catering license alone authorizes alcohol service.
