I love the Carver Theatre. This building is a landmark of over 70+ years. I enjoyed it as a movie theatre and now a place of constant wonderful gatherings. I have been going there since a little toddler. It is beautiful inside and outside. The space is great for gathering like concert, reunions, parties, etc.

This is a great old venue, built in 1950 as a theatre. It closed in 1980 and was used for several things until being heavily damaged by Hurricane Katrina. Totally refurbished it’s open for balls, films, concerts, weddings and other events. A great historic building brought back to service.

I was so excited to be back in the Carver for the first time in over 40 years. I love the improvements. Being there brought back so many memories from my childhood. The history behind the theater was something you'd never learn in your average history book.

I was only there to use the restroom. I'll say this, you can tell a lot about a place by seeing how well they keep the restroom clean. It was almost perfect. The staff there did an amazing job keeping it so clean.

I paid for VIP at this party called Hennessy and waffles. We had bottle service. When they took us to our seats they shoved us in a corner where all these other people were but no one else had bottle service.

Space is okay, but you need your own stadium style seating. And your own sound guy. Cause they suck. Like suck bad. They had spotlights pointed to the walls. Nothing was being illuminated. It was a mess.
