About Magic Stick
Magic Stick is a storied upstairs live music space within the Majestic Theatre Center in Detroit’s Midtown. Known for its intimate indie, garage, and rock bookings since the 1990s, this venue keeps its roots while continuing to host exciting acts in a dynamic, no-fuss setting. Since a 2015 renovation, the adjacent Majestic Theatre handles larger shows, but The Magic Stick remains a dedicated space for up‑close performances. Whether you’re catching a DJ set, a high-energy rock show, or a smaller club night, you’ll find a straightforward, reliable ticketing experience with us.
Located at 4120 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI 48201, The Magic Stick offers flexible seating configurations and a standing-friendly main floor, with theatre-style seating available for certain setups (capacity up to 200). This is a great option for fans who want an intimate venue feel with real energy, while still being part of a larger, historic venue complex that includes Garden Bowl, Majestic Cafe, and Sgt. Pepperoni’s.
Getting to The Magic Stick is convenient for Detroit travelers. There’s no dedicated Magic Stick lot, but parking is typically available behind the Majestic and in nearby street spots, with ADA parking behind the venue. The venue is accessible via public transit, including the QLINE Woodward Streetcar stop nearby and DDOT bus routes along Woodward. Plan ahead for parking demands on show nights and allow a little extra time for transit during peak hours.
If you’re visiting Detroit Midtown for a show, consider pairing your night with nearby hotels and dining. Top hotel options include Inn on Ferry Street, Aloft Detroit at The David Whitney, Siren Hotel Detroit, and Hilton Garden Inn Detroit Downtown. For meals or a post-show bite, explore Midtown dining options and nearby lounges—great fits for pre-show or after-party plans. We’ve got you covered with secure, straightforward ticketing and trustworthy venue information to help you focus on the music.
