As COVID-19 restrictions continue to limit social gatherings, a new micro venue has opened in Owensboro, Kentucky, dubbed The Party Space Place. The family-owned business was designed for consumers seeking a quality venue for smaller-scale events without having to pay a hefty price.
“The whole space is fully decorated. We wanted to make sure people felt like, even though they aren’t spending much, they feel like they’re spending a million bucks,” said Allyson Sander, co-owner of The Party Space Place. “Ever since COVID, it’s been emphasized that you want to have less people. We want it to be everybody’s space." The budget-friendly venue is available to rent for a two-hour reservation for $100 and can house up to 80 individuals.
