Located on the northwest corner of Downtown Indianapolis, Canal Pointe is a historic and sought-after event space. Now under the management of Indy Pavilion, Inc., this beautiful waterfront oasis is within walking distance of premier downtown hotels and entertainment spots along the manicured Downtown Canal Walk and the IU Health campus.
Formerly known as Canal 337 and before that, The Creation Cafe, Canal Pointe has been revitalized with elegance and style, making it perfect for weddings, special events, and meetings of all sizes. The venue’s rich history includes serving as a home for the congregation of Buggs Temple, an important part of the Black community near the Indiana Avenue neighborhood.
Upon arrival, guests will marvel at the picturesque three-story venue, highlighted by ornate hardwoods and exposed beams. Two enchanting outdoor patios overlook the Canal basin and landscaped gardens, providing a stunning backdrop of the Downtown skyline.
Canal Pointe accommodates gatherings of all sizes with its two event levels, offering both indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces for groups ranging from 15 to 400. Our events team provides Indiana’s most comprehensive catalog of lighting, staging, audio, linens, tables, chairs, bar services, entertainment, and technology, ensuring a seamless and memorable experience.
