Universal Preservation Hall

One of the coolest places I have ever seen a show. It’s an old church that was converted into a performing arts theater in the round. The vibe is so cool, the sound is excellent, and there isn’t a bad seat in the house.

I took my oldest to see Yesterday and Today, an interactive tribute to The Beatles. We had a wonderful time.

We've seen many shows here and it is by far our favorite venue in the capital district. The sound, lights, and ambience make every show incredible.

Excellent venue. We saw Jesse's girl NYC. Nice intimate venue.

Small intimate (but not intimidating) venue. Large open gathering room upon entry. Bar on far well offering a variety of drink choices. Event staff are very helpful. Great sound and acoustic throughout venue. Any seat is a good choice. Stage will most likely have seating on 3 sides; left of stage, front of stage, right of stage.

This venue is astounding, and as I'm sure you see in the pic, this extremely well manicured , newly renovated old church is quite the surprising sight to behold. Set up in a sort of "in the round manner" the cozy ambiance and lighting and well thought out layout of the stage to the room, but in some cases shows can require different staging abilities that may not work here.
With the very amazing courteous and professional staff they have, however, they can make anything work. It was an absolute pleasure and great time performing at this venue, and it comes with a super incredible review and recommendations from my end to check out this beautiful preserve for yourselves.
