About 7th Street Entry

Welcome to 7th Street Entry, the intimate performing space attached to the iconic First Avenue in downtown Minneapolis. Known for its up-close, general-admission vibe and historic indie roots, the Entry hosts early showcases and artist development moments that helped launch bands like Hüsker Dü and many local acts. This page covers seating, parking, transit options, and nearby hotels and dining to help you secure your tickets with ease.

Whether you’re planning a first-come, first-served night dancing in a crowd or a casual after-show hang, we’ve got you covered with practical details to make your visit smooth and enjoyable.

Venue overview: 7th Street Entry is a small, standing-oriented space with a capacity of 250, perfectly suited for intimate performances inside the First Avenue complex. The main room seats up to 1,550, but the Entry itself emphasizes general-admission standing with limited seating on a first-come, first-served basis.
