Top 5 Best Music Venues


Ever wonder what the world’s best music venues are? Most of us stick close to home when it comes to concert going, but the truth is that not all venues were created equal. In fact, some are much, much better than others.

Party Earth is a website that recommends entertainment and social experiences worldwide through detailed reviews of venues, calendars of events, and life-capturing photos. So naturally, they have a list of the top music venues around the world. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind live music experience, consider the following places:

1.      Paradiso, Amsterdam—What used to be a 19th century church is now a concert venue and nightclub, and some of the world’s best artists have made it a point to stop there: The Rolling Stones, U2, Pink Floyd, Metallica, and many more.
2.      Columbia Halle, Berlin—Instead of Paradiso’s Victorian vibe, Berlin presents us with one of the most modern venues out there. Its acoustics are world-renowned and its hi-tech style allows for light shows you’ve never seen the likes of before.
3.      Le Grand Rex, Paris—Built in 1932, this is Paris’s largest concert venue. Its ceiling has been decorated to look like the night sky, and the stage has seen the likes of artists like the Smashing Pumpkins and Radiohead.
4.      The Congress Theater, Chicago—This was originally a movie palace, built in the 1920s. Now it’s one of the best venues around for music. Its beautifully elegant exterior and interior really do look like a palace.
5.      Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles—Some of music’s biggest names have added this location to their performance schedules. An outdoor arena, it offers some of the best views of Los Angeles and is located just below the famous “Hollywood” sign.
