Frequently Asked Questions




Rent a concert venue in Washington DC

From classic opera to rock music, Washington, D.C. is as much a capital for the arts as it is politics. People come here from all over the world to watch performances in state-of-the-art facilities. You'll find concert venues here for intimate gatherings in the basement of nightclubs, historic auditoriums that seat thousands of people, and urban parks designed for outdoor concerts. Bands tour through Washington, D.C. regularly, including smaller indie bands and major international performing groups. But you'll also find live music venues for school concerts, music club meetups, and more!

Professional concert venue rentals in Washington DC

If you're looking to host medium-sized performances of up to 250 people, check out Songbyrd Music House. The venue has won several awards, including Best Place for Dinner and Live Music by the Washington City Paper three years in a row. Khalid, Rapsody, and Moonchild have all performed here, to name a few. While Songbyrd Music House opened relatively recently in 2015, it made it through the pandemic and has only grown in popularity since.
The Southwest Waterfront district near The Wharf is home to The Anthem, a large-scale concert venue that can host up to 6,000 people. The Anthem has seen such diverse performers as The National Symphony Orchestra and Jerry Seinfeld. The 57,000-sq.-ft. space includes $60 million dollars worth of state-of-the-art equipment, including a moveable stage and backdrop that transforms the space.
For more intimate performances, we recommend Pearl Street Warehouse in The Wharf district. This venue is a short walk away from two metro stations and hosts live concerts year-round. The smaller scale of the performance hall means you'll never be far from the music and there are no bad seats. Blues, rock, bluegrass, and country are their specialties, and there's room for 150-300 guests, depending on whether the setup is seated or standing.

Explore outdoor concert venues in Washington DC

You can transform the vibe of your concert by making it an outdoor event. Venues like Jiffy Lube Live in nearby Gainesville, VA, have seating for 25,000 howling fans during the summer months. For a more historic concert experience, check out Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts, the only US National Park dedicated to the performing arts. The Filene Center is the 10-story theater venue, opened in 1971 and providing space for up to 6,200 guests. Washington, D.C.'s outdoor concert venues are no less grand than its indoor facilities.

We threw a concert in this space, bringing in our own equipment, lighting, rigging, etc. It's a great intimate space, with such a cool, vintage feel. Sha is the on-duty manager, and he's fantastic. The host was very responsive, and I would definitely use this space again...
