Event spaces include the main ballroom which opens to the stage, with a separate art gallery, which can host up to 175 guests seated. The main ballroom has 27 foot ceilings and grey walls looking into the stage, with historical aged brick walls and 45 feet airspace before the original theater fly nest. Historical and modern aesthetics collide at The Fariss.

Your guests will dance on fully renovated, 100 year old Florida Birch floors and will have gorgeous Tampa views from mahogany restored windows. The Fariss is on the second floor of the Fariss building and two blocks from Armature Works, Water Works Park, and Riverwalk.
