Vera Groningen

Vera is a venue since 1973 featuring concerts, movies and dance nights. Bands that later became famous first played here: U2, The White Stripes, Sonic Youth, Nirvana, Beck and many, many more.
It has two halls with bar: the main hall (capacity 450) and a smaller one (cap. 80) in the former vaults (dating from the 14th century).
On Tuesdays you can watch an arthouse movie and on Saturdays visit a support-your-local-scene band from Groningen or elsewhere in the Netherlands in the Downstage bar.
Saturday nights are dancenights (from 23.30 till 04.00), with our resident DJ's. Their motto: the danceable side of underground and the underground side of dance.
