One of the largest theaters of its kind in the world when it opened in 1908, this former opera house on North Broad Street debuted as a modern live entertainment venue in late 2018. Live Nation partnered in the stunning $56 million refurbishment of the space, which now includes a 100,000-square-foot theater with a 3,400-person capacity, 12 bars, food from Brûlée Catering and a variety of VIP experiences. 858 N. Broad Street.

Events Include:

Punch Line Philly

This 300-seat comedy club encourages patrons to come early and stay after the shows to enjoy the bar, restaurant and outdoor patio. Still, stand-up comedians are the main draw; past acts include Dave Chappelle, Jay Pharaoh, Bill Bellamy, Marlon Wayans and Nikki Glaser. 33. E. Laurel Street.

Events Include:

Théâtre des arts vivants

The smallest large venue in Philadelphia, the TLA offers concertgoers a more personal environment in which to take in well-known post-rock (Mogwai), rap (Prophets of Rage and Snoop Dogg), death metal (Attila), pop (Noah Cyrus) and, on occasion, Brandy. The venue houses two bars, a snack stand and a 21+ balcony. 334 rue du Sud.

Events Include:

Tower Theater

Although on the edge of city limits, this venue has spent decades as a major player in the local music scene. Opened as a movie house in 1927, converted into a concert hall in 1972, the Tower blends old-world aesthetics with amazing acoustics—and has played an integral role in the careers of Bruce Springsteen and David Bowie, with later performances from the likes of Lauryn Hill and Kanye West.
