I was invited to join the Lynchburg Jazz group on facebook where they've created a dinner event in downtown Lynchburg. Every Friday between 7-11pm- you can enjoy dinner and live music in The Grand Ballroom (Your Jazz & Blues place! Live artists every Friday night. Flavorful homestyle meals with refreshing wines and beers) . My husband and I decided we had to check it out this past Friday night. The Grand Ballroom is located at 742 Commerce Street in Downtown Lynchburg.
The Grand Ballroom is a venue for wedding receptions. They also host reunions, graduations, social events and corporate events.
This building is a great example of the restoration efforts in downtown Lynchburg. The Grand Ballroom’s interior columns are decorated with white lights, and the tables were dressed in white tablecloths with large hurricane candles. The interior is beautiful and elegant, with high ceilings and a gorgeous center staircase.
For $25 (A COUPLE), we were treated to a delicious buffet dinner consisting of BBQ Chicken, Ham, two side veggies, potato salad and rolls (feel free to go back to the buffet too!) and dessert. There is a bar available for soft drinks, wine and beer.
The live music started at 7pm and was provided by Splaaat. They were excellent and played a variety of jazz and blues. The low lighting and candlelight provided the perfect atmosphere; it was wonderful (and accounts for my dim photo's).
Do you want to enjoy an evening out at The Grand Ballroom? YOU’LL HAVE TO HURRY.
The Grand Ballroom is booked solid in April for wedding receptions and graduations so these Friday night events are limited. The Grand can accommodate over 300 people and include food, entertainment and transportation services. They offer complete special event and wedding packages with personalized services.

Now that looks like just the kind of place I love! I can see why it gets busy.
Ellie, we couldn't believe the price- the food was excellent and to sit and listen to live music all night with the hubby was a real treat.
Joan, you would love it- the building reminds me of the mills in Nashua and Concord, it was magical with the low lighting. I see why it's the place to hold a reception. Thanks for stopping by!
Debbie the grand ballroom sounds like a real good time! Hope you have a lot of fun at the next event.
Bill, we're getting a group together and going back tonight! It will be a great evening. Thanks for commenting.
