Uptown Social

"I can't thank Uptown enough, for opening their venue up to allow the kids from Shine the Light Project to put on their premiere production of Grease! The venue is beautiful and the staff was amazing and the kids were so grateful to get to perform in such a beautiful venue! Thank you!!!"

"Working with Jeremy and the team at Uptown Social on planning our company's holiday party was an absolute pleasure. They were extremely professional & didn't leave a stone left unturned. Every question I had was answered. They had recommendations for us from catering companies to team building events. They took the time to sit down with us to review & finalize our plans a couple weeks before the event. The entire time, I knew we were in good hands. The night of the event was also flawless! Jeremy & Kristin were attentive and made sure the set up was just how we wanted it. They turned the lights and music on & off at the appropriate times. So many small details that I really, truly appreciated!! I highly recommend doing any event here. They know how to take care of you! :-)"

"Our non-profit organization recently held an event at Uptown Social and we were so pleased with the entire event. Jeremy and Judy went above and beyond to meet the needs of our event, stepping up to help work out our unique requests, and pitching in to help make everything run smoothly. The venue is absolutely beautiful, the lighting and sound quality were perfect, and the staff was simply a joy to work with. We look forward to holding another fundraising event at this venue."

"Uptown Social, situated in a historic church in downtown Michigan City, is a sight to behold. Recently, I had the pleasure of participating in a holiday Artisan Market hosted by Dig the Dunes, and the experience left an indelible impression. The event was a bustling hub of activity with over 40 vendors and a smattering of food trucks, turning the venue into a lively marketplace. The grandeur of the venue, with its stunning ambient lighting and historic charm, added a unique flavor to the event making the shopping experience all the more delightful. One of the most striking features of Uptown Social is the large stage, dominated by a massive, whimsically lit organ. This impressive sight, coupled with the balcony overlooking the main floor, lends a certain grandeur to the venue that is truly captivating. While the space can feel a bit crowded when filled to capacity, this is more a testament to the popularity of the venue and the events it hosts than a drawback. There is a certain charm in the bustling energy of the crowd, complemented by the stunning aesthetics of the venue. One of the most enjoyable aspects of the venue is its multiple bars and lounges, including one on the balcony. This feature ensured that patrons could unwind and enjoy their shopping experience with a drink in hand, adding another layer of enjoyment to the event. In conclusion, Uptown Social offers a unique blend of history, charm, and excitement that is hard to come by. From its stunning aesthetics to its well-thought-out layout, the venue is a testament to the potential of repurposed historic spaces. Whether you're participating in an event or simply attending one, Uptown Social promises a delightful experience that will leave you wanting to return."

"We cannot thank Uptown Social enough for the hard work, time and energy they put in to our July 2023 wedding. We were overwhelmed with the team's dedication to our day and are so happy we chose this venue. When shopping for venues, we were choosing between two great options. After our initial visit to Uptown Social it was no question that would we go with them because of the professionalism and knowledge of their COO, Jeremy. Jeremy was approachable, understanding and committed. We instantly knew that we could trust him to execute. We had the crazy idea to have an outdoor ceremony in the back alley of the venue. Jeremy (and his team) embraced the idea and worked tirelessly to make it a reality. They made fixes and updates to the back to make it perfect for our ceremony. Jeremy and Judy set up many mock ceremony seating arrangements to make sure we could fit all of the chair and make it happen! The day of our wedding was PERFECT! I trusted Jeremy and Judy with everything and they did not disappointed. The beauty of the venue speaks for itself but the quality of the staff is what made our day so wonderful. I wish I could do it again!"
