The Factory Named St. Louis’ Best Live Music Venue + Best All Ages Venue For 2nd Year In A Row

The Factory at The District, St. Louis’ hottest new destination for live entertainment, has been named Best Live Music Venue by the local community in Riverfront Times for the second straight year. The venue also received its second win for Best All Ages Venue. Last year, the venue was awarded Best New Venue in the outlet for its unique approach to live entertainment, carving its own niche in the music community of St. Louis.

The Factory opened its doors to the public in July of 2021 and had a massively successful first year that included comedy shows, sporting events and concerts from Buddy Guy, Olivia Rodrigo, The Roots (Riverfront Times’ “Best Concert In The Last Year” in 2021) and more. The Factory quickly became a top destination for events in the city after the pandemic due to its elevated fan and artist experience, which is setting new standards in the industry and has made the venue a premier destination for national touring artists. VenuesNow highlighted The Factory for its unique amenities that have allowed it to distinguish itself among the St. Louis music scene.

(1.12), blues guitarist Joanne Shaw Taylor (4.15) and a New Year's Eve celebration with critically-acclaimed DJ Deadmau5, who opened the venue with a sold out show last year.
