The Factory in Chesterfield is a purpose-built 52,000-square-foot music club designed specifically for touring concerts. The venue features professional production and a large performance stage, making it a true concert environment rather than a converted bar or event room.

For musicians, the built-in production infrastructure is a major advantage, supporting professional sound, lighting, staging, and full-band touring needs. The Factory is best suited to established regional and national acts with polished shows and enough draw to support a substantial room. It offers musicians a modern St. Louis-area venue where the entire building is designed around the demands of live music.
