The Warning

The Warfield is San Francisco’s finest concert venue featuring the hottest rock shows in the Bay Area.

The Warfield is a 2250 person venue and has been a San Francisco institution for over 100 years. Opened on May 13, 1922, it was built by showman and theatre chain owner Marcus Loew, who named the showplace after his old friend David Warfield, a native San Franciscan who began as an usher and grew to be one of the greatest silent film actors of his time. The Warfield was originally built as a vaudeville and movie palace and became a concert hall in 1979 when Bill Graham Presents booked a two week run of shows with Bob Dylan. The esteemed hall has been rocking ever since.

Now operated by Goldenvoice (the creator of Coachella and Stagecoach festivals) the venue is keeping with its illustrious past. Today, the entertainment has continued to range from artists such as Nirvana, John Prine, Faith No More, The Killers, Adele, ODESZA, Lizzo and H.E.R., as well as played host to charitable fundraisers for organizations such as GLIDE Memorial Church and Tipping Point.
