Loring Social

Loring Social is a sophisticated event venue located adjacent to Loring Park in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Housed in a historic 1900s building that once served as the Stutz Bearcat automobile showroom, the space blends industrial charm with romantic and glamorous details. Its urban setting and architectural features evoke the atmosphere of a New York-style SoHo loft, offering a unique backdrop for a variety of events.

The venue comprises two distinct event spaces. The Waverly Room welcomes guests with its airy layout, original terrazzo marble floor, vintage elevator doors, and glass sconces. It offers a striking view of the Basilica and features a ten-foot white marble bar alongside a cocktail lounge. The Chelsea Room contrasts with the Waverly Room through its exposed brick walls, vaulted ceiling adorned with sixteen chandeliers, and a working glass garage door opening onto a European-style back alley with cobblestone streets and flowering baskets.

Both rooms are equipped with state-of-the-art audiovisual technology discreetly integrated into the historic setting, supporting presentations, award dinners, and wedding ceremonies. The venue provides complimentary tables and chairs, including various sizes and styles such as white Chiavari chairs. The overall ambiance combines urban chic with historical character, making it suitable for weddings, corporate events, social gatherings, and creative workshops.
