Charming Historic Venue with Modern Flair
Originally a five-and-dime store built in 1920, NOVA 535 was modernized into a world-class event venue in St. Petersburg, FL. This historic space with modern flourishes features two stories, a full liquor bar, a private courtyard, and bridal and groom suites ready to be customized for your event. NOVA’s focus remains to wow and delight every guest by blending your vision with NOVA’s 5-Star results.


Where Timeless Elegance Meets Cutting-Edge Style
Its original 1920 clay brick walls have been preserved and now wrap around a Brazilian wood dance floor inviting your guests to dance the night away. Top-of-the-line audiovisual and lighting services offer nightclub quality sound, adaptable color washes allow you to create a customizable ambiance, and a video/slideshow system is perfect for projecting your fave photos or home movies. The private courtyard at NOVA 535 makes a lovely ceremony or cocktail hour spot. A thicket of lush, dramatically lit 30-foot-tall bamboo surrounds the area, and twinkling café lights span the patio and set the mood for night. Celebrate the night away at this 100-year-old Downtown St. Pete event space that was meticulously renovated for you to enjoy.
