FAQ

We’re at 22 Kirk Avenue SW in Roanoke, Virginia just a few doors down from LUCKY Restaurant.

The Spot on Kirk is a casual atmosphere where the music takes center stage. Musicians don’t have to compete with clanking dishes or screaming bar patrons – they just perform for the sake of performing. All shows are considered general admission, but there’s not a bad seat in the house. The coolest part of our venue? It feels like you’re at a private concert in your living room surrounded by people who are there to appreciate it with you. We don’t serve food, but we do serve drinks including beer, wine, specialty drinks, sodas, and wate

The Spot is in good company! Some of our favorite restaurants are right here on Kirk Avenue with dozens more just a couple of blocks away in the Historic Roanoke City Market. Come early enough to grab a bite to eat nearby, or hit up some of Roanoke’s favorite late-night spots for signature cocktails. Find specifics in our Around Town section.

While we’d love for you to stay as long as you can, our chairs aren’t really made for sleeping. There are plenty of accommodations in and around Downtown Roanoke. If you haven’t already checked out our Around Town section, you should probably do that now.

You’ll find a “BUY TICKETS” button attached to each of our events on this website that take you to EventBrite. Don’t want to reserve your ticket in advance? You can buy tickets at the door with cash or card. Just know they may cost more the day of the show or, even worse, the show may be completely sold out.

Online ticket sales typically end at 5pm on the day of an event. In most cases, tickets will still be available at the door. If a show is sold out, we’ll be announcing it everywhere possible: this website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and from various regional mountain tops (just in case you’re within earshot).

There is free street-parking available in Downtown Roanoke after 5:00 pm. If you can’t tango into a space, there are paid parking lots and garages nearby. Two pay-by-the-hour lots are on the same block as The Spot, and a short walk away you’ll find the Center in the Square Garage or the Church Avenue Garage.

No smoking.

Kids are welcome.

And pets aren’t allowed (unfortunately).

We constantly update our website, Facebook and Instagram, but we encourage you to sign up for our newsletter!

Sure. The Spot on Kirk can be rented for special events depending on availability. Our full capacity is 130. Inside, we have about 80 chairs and 15 stools if desired, three bistro tables, a few other tables, two bathrooms, a stage, and a projector with a screen. Rental pricing starts around $500, but will vary depending on the length of your rental, the type of event, how many guests you plan to have, and whether or not your event is private or open to the public. If none of this helped, or you have more questions, please email us at info@thespotonkirk.org.
