The Dakota Tavern

Venue review

The musician's read

The Dakota Tavern is an intimate Toronto live-music room with a real stage, defined technical requirements and in-house show support. Roots, country, rock and indie bands fit its identity, and musicians are expected to approach the night like a proper show rather than a casual bar set. Band members must be of legal drinking age, so this is a serious working-room target for adult acts.
