About Union Transfer

Union Transfer is a storied Philadelphia music venue housed in a renovated historic building that once served as a luggage transfer station. Located at 1026 Spring Garden Street, this intimate space hosts a wide range of indie, hip-hop, and live performances, offering a dynamic atmosphere typical of the city’s thriving music scene. With a main floor GA area and a mezzanine balcony that provides tiered seating and bleacher options, Union Transfer blends standing room energy with comfortable vantage points for those who prefer seating. We’ve got you covered with seating details, parking tips, transit options, and nearby hotel and dining recommendations to help you plan a smooth night out.

Booking at Union Transfer is straightforward. The venue’s proximity to multiple SEPTA stops and Broad Street Line access makes it easy to reach without a car. For guests traveling by car, there’s a private on-site parking lot behind the building (staffed; typically available after 6pm, commonly around the best available price), in addition to street parking and nearby lots. Whether you’re catching early doors or a late show, secure your seats through our easy, no-fuss process. If you’re visiting Philadelphia for a show, we’ve highlighted nearby hotels and recommended dining options to complement your night. For reference, opening shows and notable performances have included Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (2011), Pitchfork Live sets like Perfume Genius, exclusive Wells Fargo AutographCard concerts featuring Lionel Richie, and special releases from artists such as Alex G, all at Union Transfer.
