About The Kent

The Kent is an event venue in a converted historic building in Memphis's Historic Snuff District, downtown. The building was originally constructed in 1883, operated as a cotton oil press, and was home to Tri State Iron Works from 1927 to 1975. It was renovated in 2021 with an industrial-chic interior. The venue offers more than 20,000 square feet of event space that accommodates up to 1,000 guests, including a large open ballroom, a pre-function area with an outdoor courtyard, breakout and meeting rooms, and suites for getting ready. The Kent hosts weddings and receptions, rehearsal dinners, corporate conferences and meetings, banquets, galas and fundraisers. Couples can choose a Keel Avenue or Front Street package. The Front Street package adds a certified wedding planner for full coordination. The getting-ready suites provide space, lighting and mirrors for hair and makeup. Parking is available in a garage close to the venue, and valet is offered through a third-party vendor.
