About FM Restaurant

Located in the NorVa district at 320 Granby St, Norfolk, VA, FM Restaurant welcomed live music and intimate performances before its space evolved into Backstage in 2019. The venue has hosted notable artists and can accommodate around 250 standing guests with configurations offering roughly 150 seated. As a trusted connector for fans, we’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan your night – from seating layouts to parking, transit, and nearby places to stay and dine.

Parking options include the PNC Garage (555 E Main St) and Dominion Tower Garage (999 Waterside Dr), both within easy reach of Granby Street. Granby Street itself is served by Norfolk-area bus routes, making transit simple for attendees staying near the downtown core. For a full experience, consider nearby hotels like the Tazewell Hotel Downtown (245 Granby St) and other accommodations within walking distance of the NorVa district. When you’re ready to book, secure your seats early—whether you’re after a close-up view from great seats in the section you want or prefer a broader audience experience.
