Each space offers its own atmosphere. 916 Congress features an open-air courtyard with overhead chandeliers and an inviting outdoor setting. 918 Congress offers an intimate indoor space with a built-in bar, while 920 Congress showcases exposed brick, Italianate architectural details, and a warm, elevated ambiance. Together, the spaces provide flexibility for events with different styles, layouts, and guest experiences.

The venue's adaptable spaces can support everything from intimate celebrations to larger events, with the option to combine indoor and outdoor areas for a more expansive experience.
The team provides personalized planning guidance and event-day support to help clients coordinate their venue setup. Outside vendors and caterers are welcome, and the venue can share a preferred vendor list. Bartending services are available through the venue, or clients may bring their own TABC-certified bartenders.

Taylor and Sidney are a pleasure to work with. The space was wonderful And very conveniently located. I highly recommend considering Swifthouse for your event needs in Austin.
Sidney and Taylor went above and beyond to make sure our recent event was a big success. My client hosted a book launch at the 918 location and it was a perfect fit for her needs. The existing bar and furniture and part of the rental, were a great value add. For a downtown location, the vendor load in and out was fairly seamless as well. We look forward to the chance to host more special events with Swift House!
Love this venue! Went to an event there and felt it had a really cool vibe. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed this truly unique space!
Hosted a vintage market at their 920 Congress location and it was stunning! Will definitely host again. Sidney and Taylor have also been incredible during the whole process and has made it so easy and enjoyable. Great team in place.
Very easy venue to work with and a decent price for downtown Austin. SwiftFit makes it easy to not stress so that you can have your attention on planning your event instead of dealing with the venue.
