Playing San Francisco: what bands ask

Which San Francisco venues are all ages?

Alternative Music Foundation, Ashkenaz Music & Dance Community Center, Bimbo's 365 Club and 22 more are listed as all ages. A venue can change its age limit show by show, so check the event page before you announce. See the all-ages venues.

What size venue should a first tour play here?

Most bands on a first run play venues under 300, like Blondie's Bar, Bottom of the Hill or White Rabbit. Theaters usually come through a promoter, often as a support slot on a bigger band’s tour. See the small venues.

Which venues make this list?

Every venue here passed our check: its own website lists this street address and real shows. Offices, studios, festivals and venues that closed are left out, and anything still in doubt waits for another check.

How are the venues ranked?

By band reviews. Each review rates sound, load in, hospitality and getting paid from 1 to 5, and a venue’s score is the average across its reviews. Venues nobody has reviewed yet are listed by name. A review marked “Show confirmed by tour data” was written from a link the band’s tour app sent after the show, so the venue and the date come from the band’s own tour plan.

A venue I played is missing. What now?

Some venues are filed in the map data as bars, clubs or event spaces, so the first check missed them. Tell us below and we will look for it in the next check.
