I really like Union Stage. They have pretty solid food and I like the intimacy of the concert venue. The security guards are also very nice. It's always a good time.

Just curious, never been to this venue before..Where is the will call located ??

Joseph Hoffman | Oct 20, 2021

By the entrance to the main room.

When you book bands do you pay them a flat fee or leave things reasonably vague so there's a chance you might not have to legally pay them for playing your venue? Or is that just what you do with Jammin Java? Asking for a friend.

Not sure what you are referring to, but if you have booking questions feel free to email us directly. Thanks.

Sorry for such a dumb question, I've been to Anthem down by the Wharf in DC but I've never even seen a sign for Union Stage. Is Union Stage an indoor or an outdoor venue for seeing bands/shows?

Picture a basement comedy club you might find in NYC.. only brand new & way nicer!

Not unless it specifically states that when buying your M&G ticket. As far as I know, the limited seated area is a separate ticket.

Is there a specific bag size policy?

Keyanna Barnes | Oct 20, 2020
Mel Agape | Oct 20, 2020

No. Not to my knowledge. But security most likely will search it. I wouldn't recommend a big bag, as the actual performance space is crowded most shows.
