Making Your Vision Come to Life
Attended the ECMC. Great venue for a private event and networking. Huge venue. Had access to box office for event staff & volunteers. Has private vip areas. Has stairs and is wheelchair accessible. Beautiful interior...more photos of inside next time. Has multiple bar setup. Has AV so great for movie screening or presentation. Staff was super friendly and supportive of the ECMC event. Centrally located in the heart of Downtown Norfolk. Right on the route of the Tide light rail.

Absolutely beautiful venue. The staff went out of their way to make sure all of the guests had an amazing experience. The food was incredible. The entertainment they had access to was great. I would highly recommend hosting your event here!

We recently had our Christmas party at the Granby Theater. We had an amazing time. It is beautifully decorated. It's sort of like a step back in time but with a modern twist. Very elegant. Great for many venues weddings even. I remember seeing movies here years ago. It looks nothing like that now. Its amazing.

I was pleasantly surprised. Smaller venue for a concert was great. Staff were all very nice. No overwhelming crowds. Beautiful architecture and had a nice comfortable atmosphere.
