Inside Scoop

Our building was once a bus depot with our particular space housing Greyhound buses for maintenance. When we first came in there were markings on the walls indicating where the buses needed to park & stop. The name of the building, Greyline, came from the old Greyhound bus route that came through Lexington.

2019’s Hottest New Venue Openings Across the Globe
We’ve gathered intel from far and wide, using the best of our TVR abilities to discover 77 venues that have opened around the world from last spring till now, and some that are soon to swing their doors open too. You might find an urban winery in your city. You might find hotels in your own neighborhood you had no idea existed. You might even find a few places you’ve been busting at the seams to host an event with. If the sheer quantity of venues on this list is any indication of a worldwide desire to connect, gather and celebrate just about anything, consider us impressed. There’s a beachside barn in Australia where you can host an environmentally conscious wedding with lodging for all your guests. There’s an old church in New Orleans filled with relics that doubles as an incredible photography and styling workshop space. There’s a new hotel in downtown Portland that’s killing it by celebrating the head chef’s Texan roots. There’s even a cute little hideaway in the countryside of Idaho where the sweetest family of all time is ready and waiting to make your wedding dreams come true. Whatever kind of venue you’re on the hunt for, we sure hope you find it in the list below. See all of 2019's Hottest New Openings Across the Globe → Reporter: Alyssa Brown
