About Workplay Theatre

WorkPlay is Birmingham’s dynamic multi-venue complex, proudly hosting live music, performances, and creative events across its theatre, SoundStage, and recording studios. Located at 500 23rd Street South in the heart of Five Points South, this adaptable space has welcomed a diverse lineup—from indie outfits to iconic acts. With flexible seating in the Theatre (500 seated) and an intimate-to-large configuration in the SoundStage (about 800 capacity, setup dependent), WorkPlay is a reliable choice for fans and touring acts alike. Whether you’re planning a music night, a comedy set, or a special event, we’ve got you covered with straightforward ticketing, clear venue details, and practical access information.

Pro tip: secure your seats early, factor in limited on-site parking, and consider nearby parking options and transit routes. WorkPlay’s evolving space also features Harmonic at WorkPlay, a bar addition that complements the live entertainment experience.

Getting there is easiest with a plan: the venue sits in Five Points South, with access to Birmingham’s DART/MAX region. If you’re driving, expect limited on-site parking but ample street parking and public decks nearby. SpotHero and other parking partners offer convenient options. For those staying overnight, nearby hotels like Hilton Birmingham at UAB (about 0.6 miles) and SpringHill Suites Downtown at UAB (about 0.3 miles) are ideal bases for catching a show. Past performers include Pecos & The Rooftops, Hunny, Himalayas, Pete Yorn, The Lemonheads, Kayko, and more, highlighting WorkPlay’s reputation as a versatile stage for a wide range of artists and events.
