The Venue

The Cotton Museum tells the amazing story of Cotton on the original Trading Floor of The Memphis Cotton Exchange. The Trade Floor was the heart of a regional economy, a crossroads for many cultures, and a place where fortunes were made and lost. The event space truly reflects Memphis’ unique history and southern charm. The Cotton Museum space is the perfect venue for your professional and private events, from catered dinners to cocktail parties to meetings. Complete with a catering kitchen and two large restrooms, it’s an ideal space for entertaining.

The Museum also boasts the uncommon convenience of a parking garage next door. Centrally located downtown on the corner of Union Avenue and Front Street, our venue will put you just steps away from all that downtown has to offer. The Trade Floor has enjoyed a full restoration and this once private club is now open for your guests to enjoy.
