Venue review

The musician's read

Dalhousie Community Centre is a large Calgary hall with capacity around 350 and a track record of concert use, including big-band jazz. Jazz, folk and community concert acts fit the room well, especially groups that need more space than a pub can offer but do not require a formal theater. It is a flexible rental setting where artists can shape the event around the music. The venue is 21+.
