NewBo City Market has a number of exceptional spaces for you to hold your events, from the wide-open Market Yard to the impressive Rotary Hall. Our building is an active public market inside a renovated manufacturing plant, offering a unique mix of industrial and green spaces. You can set up tents on the grass space or parking lot in the Market Yard, present a concert on our outdoor stage, enjoy cocktails on our covered patio, or host a formal dinner inside Rotary Hall.

Our unique and flexible spaces can be transformed into the perfect venue for almost any gathering! We are conveniently located a few blocks from downtown Cedar Rapids and just minutes from I-380.
