Creating an Atmosphere of Excitement and Connection
Empourium is where the night gets good. The lounge has the main bar and the slushies, low light overhead, a stage in the back for whoever's on. Upstairs is the rooftop, open to the sky over downtown Athens with its own bar. Show up with your people or discover new ones. The night does the rest.
2nd Level
Rooftop
The rooftop sits above East Broad with open air overhead and the downtown Athens skyline in every direction. String lights, a full bar, and seating throughout. It's one of the few rooftops downtown, and the kind of space that changes the way a night feels. There is also a large TV to watch the game.
The rooftop also books as its own private event space. Cocktail hours, corporate receptions, birthdays with a view, anything that benefits from being above the street. Rent it on its own when you want the second floor to yourself, or pair it with the lounge below when the night needs the full venue.
Main Floor
Lounge
The lounge takes up the main floor with the bar running its length, the slushie wall behind it, and a stage at the back for live music. Warm lighting, dark wood, and the full cocktail menu within reach. It's the room where most of the night happens, with room to gather and stay in the mix. Three large tvs to watch the game.
The lounge also books as its own private event space. Date nights, formals, parties, socials, corporate events, anything that needs a full bar and a venue downtown. Rent it on its own for a focused night, or pair it with the rooftop above when the whole place is yours.
Main Floor
Stage
The stage sits at the back of the lounge, raised just enough to put the act above the room. We often have live music playing on the weekends or a DJ bringing the energy.
For private events, the stage opens up the lineup. Bring your own band, book your own DJ, or let us handle the booking. From full live sets to ambient music between drinks, the stage is yours when you take the lounge.
