About The Duchess - York
The Duchess - York sits in the heart of York at Stonebow House, The Stonebow, YO1 7NP. With a capacity described as near-500, this intimate venue has hosted a range of promoter-promoted gigs and club nights since it opened in 2008. While the building remains at Stonebow House, some listings note it as permanently closed in recent records, so it’s wise to check current show listings and venue status if you’re planning a visit. The venue is well known for its close, table-style setup near the stage, making for a personal, up-close concert experience.
Whether you’re grabbing a night of live music or a late club session, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transport, and nearby hotels and dining options to help you plan a smooth night out in York.
Practical tips: parking is limited on-street; for convenience consider nearby Fossgate or Walmgate options, or use Castle Car Park on Tower Street. York’s city centre location provides multiple bus stops right outside, and central rail/bus access is within easy reach for visitors from surrounding areas. For a comfortable stay before or after a show, consider The Grand York near the city centre or Premier Inn York City Centre (Layerthorpe) as accessible options. Popular past acts at The Duchess include The Bluetones, Nerina Pallot, Snake Oil & Harmony, Trembling Bells, Haken, and Tom Hingley. If you’re looking to secure your seats and plan a seamless night, we’ll help you navigate availability and logistics with straightforward options and trusted partners.
