Built in 1876 as Los Angeles's first cathedral, Vibiana is now one of the city's most dramatic event spaces — a soaring Romanesque nave that seats 550 and can spill into a surrounding garden, private dining rooms, and a Michelin-recognized restaurant led by Chef Neal Fraser.
Redbird | Vibiana occupies an iconic Downtown Los Angeles landmark, a campus in the Historic Core that the venue calls a true oasis. The vast property blends historic architecture with lush courtyards and distinctive indoor and outdoor spaces. Alongside the restaurant’s Main Dining Room and Lounge, it holds a grand Main Hall, five private dining rooms and a "hidden" open-air garden. Chef Neal Fraser leads the kitchen with a guest-first approach to fine dining, and the bar programme comes from James Beard Award Finalist Tobin Shea.
For weddings, the spaces can stand alone or be combined, which allows for full wedding weekends and layered event flows. They can be configured for ceremonies, seated dinners, cocktail receptions or multi-room flows, with transitions between indoor and outdoor settings. The Main Hall seats up to 550 and holds up to 800 standing, while the garden seats up to 108. Several spaces have open kitchens, which allow live cooking and cocktail presentations. Every event is supported by a dedicated event captain and service team, with chef-driven menus and a craft cocktail and nonalcoholic bar programme. The venue has hosted weddings and rehearsal dinners, from intimate parties up to 800 guests.
