The Anthem

Washington, District of Columbia, United States

The Anthem live music venue in Washington, District of Columbia

Why it matters

The Anthem has a distinct place in Washington's live-music landscape. It is a high-volume modern venue with Wharf transit/parking demand.

Getting there

The Anthem is at The Wharf. L'Enfant Plaza and Waterfront Metro are both walkable, the Wharf shuttle serves the area, and parking is limited/expensive compared with transit.

Bag policy

The Anthem publishes current bag guidance in its official FAQ and can adjust it by event. Keep bags small and check the FAQ before leaving.

Local tips

The Wharf gives you food and drinks before the show, but it also gets crowded. Metro is usually the better answer than trying to drive directly under the venue.
