Belly Up Tavern

Belly Up has been a San Diego-area music institution since 1974, packing a remarkable touring history into a roughly 600-capacity Solana Beach room.

The venue is on Cedros Avenue in Solana Beach. Driving and rideshare are common; the Solana Beach transit station is also nearby enough to consider depending on schedule.

Bag rules can vary by event. Check the venue FAQ or show listing before arrival and travel light.

This is a destination club even if the band could play bigger. The low ceiling and compact floor are a major part of why people keep naming it among Southern California's best rooms.
