More than 200 venues have already signed on to participate in Independent Venue Week 2021. The record number of participating venues come from 39 states across the United States and will host a series of shows and programming in celebration of the spirit of independence from July 12-18.
Venues already signed on include The 9:30 Club in D.C., First Avenue in Minneapolis, Exit/In in Nashville, The Crocodile in Seattle and hundreds more.
This year’s Independent Venue Week will also partner with the National Independent Venue Association. NIVA’s emergence was sparked last year by an Independent Venue Week call following mass gathering bans due to the pandemic.
