Dinkytown, Minneapolis Mid-sized rock + indie + metal

Varsity Theater

The historic Dinkytown theater, restored and now a Live Nation room with a full booking calendar — indie rock, metal, hip-hop, the occasional touring act. Standing-room layout below the balcony, the kind of room that gets loud on a packed Friday.

Saves land in your shortlist; been-heres fill your Passport. Both shape the Best of MPLS. Anonymous, never sold.
