Please factor in the time you need to set up and break down your decorations when requesting a time for your party. To reserve your date, please send an email with the preferred date and time frame, number of guests (Up to 60. Indicate # of children, if any.) and any other pertinent info to: QEDAstoria@gmail.com

*Higher because we can't have our regularly scheduled shows. If you can adjust the start / end time to allow us to have a show or two, we will discount this rate accordingly. Are you producing a show that is ticketed and open to the public? Then please click here.

CATERED FOOD: 
You're welcome to choose your own caterer and bring in the outside food for a $25 garbage fee. Your caterer might provide you with your utensils, napkins, plates, etc. QED does not. We have lots of local restaurants that cater if you need some ideas.

NOTE: Sternos are not allowed from Jun thru Aug due to the heat. For summertime catering we recommend cold pasta salads, bagel spreads, fruit trays, heroes, etc.

There is NO FEE for your dessert. No ice cream cakes, please and thanks!

DRINKS:
We offer beer & wine, coffee and teas and wide variety of delicious non-alcoholic drinks. You can have a cash bar (our prices are very affordable at $6 - $9 beers, $10 - $11 wine and draught pitchers and wine bottles available, too, to save on cost). Click here for our menu.

For an open bar, we can run a tab. If you want to make sure you don't spend too much at the bar, we can limit it to certain drinks and/or cap it at whatever price you're comfortable with then make it cash bar thereafter. 18% gratuity will be added to all tabs. 

Outside drinks are NOT allowed except for water bottles, juice boxes and 2-liters of sodas. For your soda, you would have to provide your own ice and cups. QED does not have an ice machine. No outside alcohol is permitted.

SOUND SYSTEM / TECH:
Since we're a performance space, we have a very nice sound system and easy tech set up to play your favorite music, plus three microphones. We also have the ability to stream on our TVs if you want to play a video or slideshow. DJs / their equipment are not accommodated. You won't need one! We're a small space and you can share a playlist via Spotify or Amazon Prime Music or plug your phone into our sound system.

If you’d like to stream a photo slideshow to our Apple TV, you can easily mirror your Apple device. Just make sure you have the photos setup in a photo album to play a slideshow!

*Tech requests MUST be pre-approved and tested at least 48 hours in advance. 

DECORATIONS:
You are responsible for your own tablecloths and decorations.

We have plenty of tables and chairs.

Anything else we missed? Just drop us an email at QEDAstoria@gmail.com.
