Concert-in-the-Round

Friday, August 20th 2021 at 7pm.

Nestled in the back room of Canal Street Pub is Berks County’s newest acoustic concert venue. This comfortable listening room will provide an acoustically sound and musically intimate evening for fans of The Hot Club of Reading.

Canal Street Pub will present a unique food and cocktail menu especially for this concert, with 1930s Paris as inspiration. Patrons will be able to order food from a Hot Club concert menu before the performance and have it served during intermission.

Eleven seats (two double-seat sofas and seven low-back arm chairs) will be available immediately surrounding the band. Diagram is approximate.
