The Armory

The Armory is the rare big-room venue with actual character. It's a 1936 National Guard Armory that got a beautiful restoration instead of a teardown, sitting right next to US Bank Stadium in downtown Minneapolis. The space holds up to 10,000 people in a flexible main hall, which makes it one of the largest indoor entertainment rooms in the Twin Cities - and unlike most venues that size, it doesn't feel like a box.

The original architecture is the selling point: exposed steel trusses, brick walls, and an enormous main hall that gives the room a weight a modern arena can't fake. It's a true do-anything space - major concerts one night, an electronic music festival the next, private events in between. The flexible floor means the layout changes with the show, so check what kind of setup your night runs.

The location plants you in the heart of the downtown entertainment district, walking distance to plenty before and after. Browse upcoming Armory shows on Evil Tickets and find your next big night.
