About 9:30 Club

The 9:30 Club opened in 1980 at 930 F Street NW, the address that gave it its name, and moved to this V Street building in 1996. Shows are general admission and standing room, with a few first-come bar stools in the balcony. The stage sits on rails and can be rolled forward or back to fit the crowd. Shows are all ages unless posted otherwise, and you can get tacos and quesadillas at the food stand along with drinks from four full bars and a coffee bar.
