Located at 3701 Mount Vernon Ave, Alexandria, VA 22305, the Flex Stage is part of the storied Birchmere complex, offering a unique live-music experience alongside the venue's renowned Main Hall. The Flex Stage features a 30' wide x 20' deep performance area, standing room only, and a standing capacity of 1,000. It’s a fantastic space for up-close encounters with touring artists across genres. We’ve got you covered for tickets, parking, transit tips, and nearby stays and bites to make your night smooth from start to finish.
