About me:

Imagine a venue capable of hosting everything from traditional weddings, Baroque chamber music recitals, and Shakespearian drama to modern dance performances, psychedelic folk festivals, and cutting-edge New Media trade shows---all within the space of a few days.

Welcome to the Varsity.

You may have heard of us, or even been here for a show. The biggest thing you need to know about the Varsity is that it can be anything to anybody. Just give us a few hours and we can change the Varsity in to something completely different. We do have a few specialties though.

We are becoming known for being one of the best music clubs in the Midwest. Our sound & lighting systems are top notch. The vibe and comfort level at the Varsity is second to none. David Rachac from Howwastheshow.com said this:

"The Varsity is an absolutely gorgeous place for a show, maybe the best in town. With a comfortable dcor and a large open performance space, the sightlines are second to none and the live music experience is enhanced by a tremendous sound and lighting system. They have paid attention to the things that matter most to the music fan, so there is little confusion why the Varsity is quickly becoming THE place for local and smaller touring bands to play."

Live theater is also wonderful in the Varsity. We have the capabilities of doing large full blown stage musicals, or small dramas in-the-round. Our technical capabilities don't stop with music, we have some of the best gear of any small theater in the Twin Cities.

Our newest specialty has become hosting special events such as weddings, fundraising events, and employee appreciation dinners. The Varsity is like no other room that you can rent for your special event. If you want to blow away your guests with something completely different and amazing, call us about booking the Varsity for your next special event.

You are the greatest venue ever conceived. Seriously, The Varsity brings in the best bands, has the best sound, and definitely also has the best lighting. That is why I keep coming back time after time.

P.S. - The Bravery are playing here on June 18th! I can't tell you how loud I screamed with joy when I first heard that a few weeks ago.
