The Scene – Located near the end of Euclid's colorful shopping row, the Variety Playhouse is a Little Five Points landmark whose mid-sized hall attracts full-sized talents. The former movie theater provides an intimate experience, yet still offers abundant seats, a smattering of tables and stage-front standing room. – – The Draw – Whether you're there for jazz or jam bands, bluegrass or bossa nova, acoustic or amped, this venue aims to please. The Playhouse is perpetually voted "Best Concert Venue" for relaxed surroundings and quality acoustics. The respect the venue…

Worst place
by yessicaflores79
In my first concert out of country (Im from Mexico) I havent seen such place as variety playhouse...Even the municipal theater in my home town looks much good than this venue...Dirty everywhere...and ending this, Ive been kicked out from concert, for bringing a camcorder to the show (they told me that theyre calling to the police and stuff)...And all the Euclid avenue is a garbage!...Everythings is abandoned, as the rest of Highlands district...
- Pros: Seating place
- Cons: everything else

The BEST Venue!
by gaylebug32
I saw Nickel Creek at the Variety Playhouse. It was the best concert I have ever seen. The venue really added a lot. It was so small. You could sit anywhere you wanted. I stood in the front. Wow, I couldn't have asked for a better place for a concert!!

Great Venue!
by digdoug2001
The Variety Playhouse is by far one of the best places to catch national and local acts in Atlanta. The name is definatley applicable as I have seen acts that range from Junior Brown to The Afghan Whigs to Men at Work to Cracker (the Counting Crows opened this show just before they broke it big). There is not a bad seat in the house and the sound is usually excellent. If you don't want to deal with the crowds down on the floor try and grab a seat on the front row of the balcony.
The Details on Variety Playhouse
The Extras:
If the band is tape-friendly, the venue offers no objections to microphones going up like lightning rods. Call the night of the show to confirm the act's policy.
Know Before You Go:
The Variety Playhouse is a smoke-free venue; however, there's a smoker's alley to the side.
Parking:
Parking is free but infrequent on neighborhood streets. Otherwise, there's a $3 lot behind the building.
