This is a really cool venue that used to be school. Great sound, and the two shows I went to were half seated, half standing. What really sets this venue apart from all others is they are paving the way in venue sustainability-- all drinks are served in metal cups, which are returned to a bus bin when you exit the show, saving thousands of plastic cups from the landfill.

Excellent venue. Not a bad seat ( view wise, the physical seats are ancient uncomfortable and rickety), good acoustics, good pa system, lighting etc. We did not have the op to tailgate at one of the on-site bars or restaurants and the roof deck was closed... but the venue strongly contributed to one of the better concerts that I've ever attended in my life...

Awesome venue being in an old school. The sound and lights were so good! Saw a great show. I really liked being in the auditorium.

Awesome place to see a show I’m SE Portland, Oregon! I won tickets to see Cowboy Junkies recently and it was an amazing experience, even with this global pandemic going on. The building is an old high school and it shows :) they left the lockers and layout preserved so you feel like you’re at the most BADASS assembly of all time lol 😆 If you have the chance or a band is booked you would enjoy seeing I highly recommend it! Great bar with food & drinks too!

Questions & Answers

Are shows standing up

Ronald Galiano | Aug 18, 2018
Gordon Brown | Aug 18, 2018

There is both main floor and balcony seating, but in my opinion the main floor is worthless. The stand up area in front of the stage forces people in most seats to also stand if they want to actually see the show. Started up front, but quickly moved to balcony, went straight there the second time.

On their website: "PARKING & PUBLIC TRANSIT We have a parking lot South of the building and parking is $5 per space on nights of shows.  Please pay with attendant.  PUBLIC PARKING IS VERY LIMITED.  Please bike or use public transportation to get to Revolution Hall.

Is this venue accessible for disabled? Are there stairs? Is there alternative seating for guests who may not fit comfortably in the available seating?

Adrian Adel | Aug 17, 2020
Dave Diehl | Aug 17, 2020

Yes, there are stairs, but there's also access for those with disabilities. Any venue anywhere will have disabled access, it's a federal law to provide it. There are no super sized seats to my knowledge. I don't believe accommodation for people who can't fit in a normal sized seat is part of the law.

I have a friend who is a musician in the Los ANgeles area. He would like to come to Portland and do a few gigs. How does Revolution Hall work ? Is it a place that hires musicians, to do a show? Or does a group/musician rent the space.

Suzanne Lauber | Aug 18, 2019
Skip Angellotti | Aug 18, 2019

Its a pretty large venue and if your friend isn't reasonably famous or known, it seems you'd have to go through a booking agent for the hall. But it is a great venue! Good luck.

If a show says “all ages” does that mean we can bring a 4 year old ?

Robin Marie Hanington | Aug 18, 2019
Gaile M | Aug 18, 2019

If it's a show for kids, sure. But may not be an appropriate venue if it's not.

Is the rooftop bar open year round?

Joseph Chamberlain | Aug 18, 2019
Ray Mullin | Aug 18, 2019

It is not, open seasonally April-October weather dependent.

Is it normal to be shushed at shows here?

Sam Toshner | Aug 18, 2019
Jennifer Ross | Aug 18, 2019

I would say out of courtesy to the performer and people around you being quiet is the way to go. It's rude to call out songs you'd like to hear. People go to listen to music and it's annoying to have the person next to you screaming to the performer.

Abdul Ismail | Aug 18, 2019

Yes. Nostrana is a good place to go after grabbing drinks on the rooftop if you are looking for something that is currently on Eater 38 Portland.

Hi, an up coming show is general admission with " full seating ". Does that mean besides the balcony the main floor will have all seating and not force people to stand because the front section is standing?

Pat Visser | Aug 18, 2018
Jon Small | Aug 18, 2018

My guess is that it does include the floor seats. Note that the first few rows of floor seats have blocked views when the standing section is full.
