The Rickhouse

The Rickhouse Beautiful, historic event venue in Downtown Durham overlooking the famed Durham Athletic Park.

Nestled in the middle of downtown Durham and a stone’s throw away from countless hotels, restaurants, bars, coffee shops and parks, The Rickhouse is steeped in Durham history, and warmly welcomes thousands of guests every year through its massive wooden doors. The Rickhouse is ideal for celebrations such as wedding receptions, rehearsal dinners, post wedding brunches, and private events, or host your next corporate event, such as corporate events and holiday parties, daytime seminars and luncheons, university functions, food shows, fundraisers, trade shows, and other community events.

✨ Planner Spotlight: Something Fabulous Weddings ✨

We're thrilled that Trent and Ashley of are bringing this year's Summer Wedding Showcase to life! 🌼🍋

Their team worked their magic at Rachel & Michael's joyful wedding at The Rickhouse 🤩 From a beautiful ceremony on the balcony to a night of dancing, they created a day that felt effortlessly personal from start to finish.

Now they're putting that same creativity into our Modern Garden Party showcase, and you'll have the chance to see their work in action!

💍 Join us Sunday, August 16, from 1–4 PM to chat with vendors of all kinds over complimentary drinks and hors d'oeuvres. We can't wait for you to meet the team behind the inspiration! 🤍
