Billboard’s 2024 Top Music Venues
Billboard selects its 26 top music venues of 2024.
Located inside the Riverbend Music Center, PNC Pavilion is booked and promoted by leading Ohio entertainment company MEMI, which brings in national tours from acts such as The Smashing Pumpkins, Alicia Keys and Charlie Puth and has been developing homegrown talent in the city since 2001. Made famous by its LED exosphere and fully immersive interior cinematic screens, Sphere’s opening run with U2 — a $100 million deal brokered in part by Live Nation’s Arthur Fogel and Brooklyn Bowl’s Shapiro — will be followed by a four-night stand by Phish in April. Housed in what used to be the Mason Jar nightclub, The Rebel Lounge is managed by Psyko Steve Presents owner Stephen Chilton and serves as ground zero for Phoenix’s budding music scene with nearly nightly bookings and a loyal following of local supporters.
