Ice House on Main
The Venue for Celebrations, Concerts, Conferences & Community
Built in 1912 with an iconic Mission Revival façade, Ice House on Main is the largest historic wedding and event venue in Bryan, Texas. Ice House on Main offers three distinct, air-conditioned event spaces that can be rented individually or in packages to meet your event needs, including the expansive Banquet Hall that can accommodate up to 500 with banquet-style seating. In addition, we have the Performance Venue, featuring an oversized stage, soaring truss ceilings, and ample space for both dancing and theater-style seating. The Parlor at Ice House on Main is our most intimate and refined event venue, ideally suited for cocktail receptions, private dinners, and bridal and baby showers.
Located in Historic Downtown Bryan, Texas, in the heart of the Brazos Valley, Ice House on Main was restored with the adaptive reuse approach, preserving as much of the original character and charm as possible while providing modern comforts and conveniences, including air conditioning, available sound and lighting, a dedicated suite for brides, a catering kitchen, and more.
Architectural features include original exposed brick, rich wood beams, and soaring wooden trusses that have guests wondering at the timeless beauty of our early 19th-century construction. The Ice House on Main provides a storied backdrop for all types of events, from corporate gatherings to weddings, galas, concerts, recpetions, and more.
At Ice House on Main, we believe in the power of hospitality and strive to create meaningful experiences that build community and create lasting memories while honoring God in all we do.
