Private Events
An event venue that doesn't look like one. Private hire, District 3, Saigon.
A 1930s French-colonial events villa on Pasteur Street, a 12-minute walk from Tao Đàn Park: gallery, bar, café, courtyard. Available by the floor or the whole building. Product launches, corporate dinners, art exhibitions, birthdays, weddings, brand activations. Run your event through TEMPO's own rhythm: a slow coffee-hour morning, a cheeky happy-hour reveal, an AFTER DARK close with live music or a DJ set. The building gives the event its character; you bring the reason.
Available Spaces
Hire one floor or the whole building.
EM Gallery
60 standing · 50–55 theatre · 40 seated.
An open gallery floor with neutral walls and adjustable track lighting on a dimmer. The floor resets between briefs: standing cocktail, theatre rows, or a seated dinner, your call. Built for art exhibitions, which makes it equally suited to product launches, brand activations, and seated dinners that need real architecture behind them, in the heart of District 3.
- Open-plan gallery floor, built up around your brief
- Adjustable track lighting with dimmers
- Gallery-grade hanging rail system
- In-house sound system + wireless mic
- Rotating gallery walls from our resident-artist programme

Start Your EnquiryCatering & Partners
Food, bar, florals, A/V. Sourced for you.
Every event runs on the same idea as the rest of TEMPO House: bring people together, and let food, drink, and music do the work. We work with a select group of HCMC caterers and event vendors. They arrive with their own team, their own equipment, a clear brief. Use our partners or bring your own. Either works. Bar service runs from the in-house cocktail menu, by consumption or by package.
- Catering partners: canapés to full sit-down menus
- Bar packages drawn from our cocktail program
- Floral and event styling coordination
- A/V and sound system setup
- Photography referrals from our network
Questions
Common questions, answered.
How much does it cost to hire TEMPO House? How is pricing worked out?
Events at TEMPO are booked on a minimum spend on food and drink rather than a hire fee. The figure depends on the date, the space, the session and your guest numbers, so we quote once you send your date and guest count. Quotes add a 5% service charge, then VAT: 8% on food and drink, and 10% on any venue hire fee.
How many guests can TEMPO House hold?
Villa (inside): 50 seated, 60 to 65 theatre-style, 80 standing. Outdoor Garden: 70 seated, 80 to 85 theatre-style, 120 standing. EM Gallery: 40 seated, 50 to 55 theatre-style, 60 standing. The full venue holds up to 260 standing or 160 seated. Actual numbers depend on the layout, because nothing is fixed to the floor.
What's included in the venue hire?
Access to the space, in-house lighting and sound, bar service from our cocktail program, and the cultural credibility of hosting inside a working, curated art gallery. Not a rented hall. Tables and basic furnishings included.
Is there parking? Where can we park?
Motorbikes park directly outside the entrance. Cars use street parking on Pasteur Street, which the ward manages, and the side streets around it. For groups over 15 we recommend sharing a rideshare link with your guests.
