Tremont Music Hall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tremont Music Hall is located near downtown Charlotte, North Carolina at 400 West Tremont Ave in the 28203 zip code. Tremont has two stages. The main hall holds 1000 people, while the Casbah (located in the same building) holds 350. Typically, shows have 3-4 bands, with doors at 7, show at 8. Most shows are all ages. Tremont caters to rock music - touching everything from alternative, indie, punk, hardcore, metal, pop, emo - and a variety of others. Shows range from $6 for local shows to $20 for national headliners. There is a full bar, as they now serve beer and liquor. Patrons under 21 years of age are not allowed to leave the property during a show, unless they pay to re-enter the show.

Tremont has plenty of parking, using a lot across the street as parking if the fenced in parking lot gets full. The fenced in parking lot is occasionally closed to customers during national tour shows. Be aware of "Do Not Park Here" signs when attending a show, as several of the lots not owned by Tremont have started towing cars.

Charlotte locals within the music scene have referred to the venue as "$TRMNT$ money hall", since management made it known that they're only interested in booking shows that make huge profits at the bar, as in alcohol sales. The statement from Blue, management in 2008, can be read on Dead Bodies Don't Drown's blog.
