Capital Turnaround

-house furniture and plants in order to prop our set. This was a huge savings - both in time and cost. The greenrooms make for lovely and comfortable areas for the talent to relax and have some privacy in between filming. Lastly, the staff is very helpful and accommodating. We look forward to returning again in the future!

Capital Turnaround because the environment is immediately so inviting. The IMPACT staff is super helpful and professional with any and all needs. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for an event venue!

to work with. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for that cool, industrial and especially unique venue.

T Collective. From the initial red carpet walk-up, to the different musicians and photo opportunities (gorgeous greenery wall with champagne flutes, photo booth, etc.), everything was such fun. The employees at IMPACT Collective kept the flow moving, including check-in, different musicians performing, making sure the unique and tasty food stations were kept fresh, and the bars had great drink options (always important!). As I'm in the event industry, I've also attended a number of site visits with clients to the Capital Turnaround, which are led by IMPACT Collective. Clients get their questions answered in a professional and thorough manner, and IMPACT employees help explain potential layout options to meet the client's vision. I've always enjoyed my experience with both the Capital Turnaround and IMPACT Collective.

it is a large event space equipped with some stylish furniture, bar space, lighting, and screens that would have been perfect for our big 300-person wedding. They also have a large auditorium, fully equipped with a stage, sound equipment, lighting, and plenty of seats to hold our event. Unfortunately, because of the pandemic, we had to significantly scale down our wedding into a virtual event and could not take full advantage of the venue’s amenities. However, because of Capital Turnaround’s infrastructure, we were able to use the auditorium and all the equipment available to create a memorable wedding we could seamlessly stream to our guests. Eddie, the venue manager, was flexible with us and allowed us to negotiate down our original contract for the scaled-back event, giving us use of the venue for a very reduced cost. During our wedding day, the venue coordinator, Jana, was very pleasant, professional, and cooperative with our planner and other vendors to make sure our event went smoothly behind the scenes. Now for the negative aspects of our experience. The venue manager and coordinators are part of Impact Collective. Impact Collective requires the use of their preferred vendors. We were, fortunately, able to talk Impact Collective into allowing us to use our own preferred caterer as their preferred caterers weren’t able to meet our needs. After we booked the venue, Capital Turnaround initiated a construction project and it was still under construction on our wedding date and this was not communicated to us. We are glad that we significantly scaled back our event as we would have had to contend with all the construction with our wedding guests. Impact Collective also created several challenges in our wedding planning. Eddie started an argument with our wedding planner during our walkthrough. In this confrontation, he was unnecessarily aggressive and patronizing, choosing to argue with her in front of us, adding to the anxieties of an already stressful pandemic wedding planning process. To his credit, Eddie did go out of his way later to call us to express his regrets over the argument. However, this still left us anxious about the possibility of future problems, although there were no additional issues. To summarize, Capital Turnaround was a fantastic venue, which allowed us to carry out the vision for our wedding we had planned, pandemic and all. However, while Impact Collective worked as part of the team to make our wedding day amazing, it was not without its challenges. *Update* This review was updated after a conversation with Impact Collective regarding our original review.
