Tim Rothfuss

Get there early if you want a good vantage point, and you'd better bring a friend if you want your spot to be there if you have to use the restroom .

BU Today

Regardless of what band you’re there to see, the Paradise offers a proximity to the musicians that many clubs don’t. Get your tickets cheaper right at the box office . Read more

Jeremy Krantz

Great, intimate concert venue . There's a bar on each of the two levels. You can also go to the lounge if you need to kill some time.

Kenneth McKlinski

Variety of musical acts and being able to be close to the stage or up in the balcony as your desire for a view compels you.

Music Drives Us

Formerly known as the Paradise Theater , this venue opened Sept. 22, 1977 and has hosted performances by U2 (their first in USA), Billy Joel, Tom Petty, Rage Against the Machine and many more. Rock On!

Enig Mue

Don't stand behind the pillars and most shows the speaker stacks will also impede your viewing . Try to lock down a spot upstairs.

Olivia

A church meets here on Sundays at 10:30am! Lunch provided every first Sunday of the month. Don't miss out!

Jenny Mackintosh

Hang out in the bar next door after you get your wristband and hand stamped for the show. Better beer and some seats. Good for between sets, too.

Melissa Donovan

By far one of my favorite venues around Boston. They just need to get rid of those poles so there's more visibility upstairs...

d l

the renovations that were made over the summer are a definite improvement. the poles are less obstructive and there's more standing room. one of my favorite venues in boston !

Chris Pollone

Intimate and historic club. Bartenders were cool.

Allie Gillette

If you don't feel like being in the mosh of people in front of the stage (or if you're short like me) watch from the balcony ! great view :)

Joseph Schwendt

The main bar inside the venue by the stage has the best selection. The upstairs bars do not stock all the items. This would be especially true of Stella Artois!

Eric V Fields

Mayer Hawthorne and The Country were incredible ... as always. He is a "Must See" if you are in to R+B with a "younger" approach

Chalnes

Music , awesome shows, drinks and food

Ron L

excellent venue. no plan, just walked up and bought a $15 ticket, some hippy funk on a Friday nite, roster mccabe, kinetix, & the brew. great talent. food was good 2

VH1

Make sure you go to the Paradise bar before the show. Great people, atmosphere, and their TVs stream the concert so you won’t miss a second. – Scott P.

Chris Smith

Any music played here is good. Beers are cheap but there's not much room for dancing , if you're looking to do that.

Laura

When it's crowded , it feels like there's no where to stand while still being able to see anything.

Sonig

Venue is amazing. Last time I was there was Junior Prom and it has changed in a great way. Great bands. Thumbs up!

Meaghan

On the floor, there is a pole . If you get stuck behind it, you won't be able to see the second half of the stage .

Mazda

It holds a place in history as the first venue that U2 ever performed in the USA and has hosted some of rock's elite.

Josh Swett

Awesome show every time. Love it when they blast the ac on the crowd.

The Feast

Buy tickets well ahead of time for big-buzz bands. Some acts sell out far too swiftly, especially indie rock royalty.

anna simmons

great venue, it flexes per artist ,

Ashley Sporleder

One of my favorite places to see a show! Great atmosphere and great staff .

Mohd Rohaizad Kuala Perlis

Best performance show by the Paradise Rock Club - Let's Rockin'!!!

Jess Roman

Always check the upcoming performances ! Sometimes there are bands that get really famous

Crystal Faunt

Was pretty impressed with this venue, good sound and set up inside. Balcony has a good view if you can work around the poles

Elliott Smith

One great club with great Music

Carolina Chacin

great venue for concerts , close and cozy with the bands

WTBU RADIO

great venue close to BU's campus, awesome shows all the time.

PUMA

What can we say? Except you'll be sure of a cool night at Boston's legendary rock club !

James Lau

A nice venue for midsize bands. Beer selection at the bar is a bit drab.

Mat Collis

Pretty cool venue just awkward to mix up in the crowd nest

Lisa Porter

Love this place! Two bars !

John Haydon

Since you're so close to the Soka Gakkai, stop by and check out their schedule for Buddhist meetings.

Johnny

Great beer !

Josiahs Porter

When exiting the club either use the back door or in the main halfway stay to the left side. Right side is for merchandise and coat check .

Scott Zakrajsek

Post show, Hang out in the coat check line . Girls hate carrying coats. And there's free bacon sandwiches

The Daily Free Press

Indie rock band Yo La Tengo performs on Wednesday, Feb. 13, and English band Alt-J (∆) on March 2.

Awesome show

Katie VanLenten

TAKE A SHOWER BEFORE YOU COME HERE. I find most of you to be smelly. Thanks!

Becky

U2 played their first show here. Not all that smelly for a venue. Upstairs there are seats. They have a no moshing/crowd surfing policy, as most clubs should, since it's no longer 1994.

Karen McPhillips

Stripped down in its new form, the sound is better. Try the balcony .

Jay Porter

My favorite mid-sized music venue in Boston .

The Downtown Fiction

Come see The Downtown Fiction here live on 11/21! Read more

Really nice venue! Little sound treatment, so bring your earplugs (just in case). Multiple bars, and some pool tables. $10 margarita, but it was a fairly large drink, so it was worth it! - Kristen Richard

A real, live, loud rock club/bar. Guaranteed maximum rock. O'Brien's is the place for the genuine article. Parking can be a nightmare, especially weekends, so plan accordingly. - OurStage
