Commodore Ballroom

This is one of the best places and nicest venue in Downtown to catch some live music, both local and international acts regularly make appearances.

Great venue for all kind of music. I saw Ice-T and the Vansterdam Crew here in 2006 and it was stunning. The staff is very kind and in opposition to Germany and Europe drinks and beverages are allowd in bottles and glas.

Great venue for live bands, since it only holds about 1,100 people. I’ve seen quite a few bands there, including Pearl Jam, Third Eye Blind, Grapes of Wrath, Honeymoon Suite and more!

Built in the 1920s in a fantastic Art Deco building, the Commodore Ballroom is one of Vancouver’s premier venues for live music.

Inside, the ballroom floor itself remains and is used as a dancefloor for the gigs and club nights that take place here. The stage is usually at the far end of the venue with the bar nearer the entrance, drink prices are a little on the high side for Vancouver.

It’s an iconic and architecturally beautiful venue and many visiting British bands come here to play, I saw the Kaiser Chiefs play here and Franz Ferdinand are playing soon.

It’s one of those places you HAVE to visit, you won’t be disappointed!
