    Classic ATL concert venue - but militant adherence to the fire evac lines along left/right stage. That being said: there are professionals and some real googly eyed dicks that are power hungry.

    I like to stand just in front of the sound board but then they moved in upstairs. Floor still has the est sound. One of the best venues in town overall.

    I've seen over 20 shows here, and each one was fantastic. I love the architecture is beautiful and rich with culture. There isn't a bad seat in the house. I love seeing shows here!

    Upstairs, Beth and Kevin are the sweetest, most attentive bartenders. They remember my drink, show after show. Also, the baños are pretty clean.

    Don't get a balcony stage left or right seat nearest to stage wall or you'll have obstructed views and will just be watching the monitors!

    Now a live music and entertainment venue, The Tabernacle was once home to a 4,000-person Baptist congregation and the 3-bed Tabernacle Infirmary.

    They have excellent shows here. You can sit balcony or be on the floor but they don't allow re-entry once you have left the stage area, so you can't go to the bathroom or anything until it's over

    One of my all time faves. Parking in the deck across the street cheaper than the surface lots right next to the venue. Ted's Montana Grill also right across the street.

    If you are planning on drinking, always remember to get to wristband you need before you get in the building. Otherwise they will send you back outside to get it.

    I like that The Tabernacle has seats on the second floor. It's a really cool venue but certainly not the best in Atlanta.

    A hundred years ago it was a church and now it's a live-music venue. When Goodie Mob did a reunion concert, they played it there. Read more

    Great concert venue! Not a bad spot in the house! Stand at the stage or sit in the 2nd or 3rd level. All great seats!

    The Tabernacle was a baptist church up until 1994, when it was sold to use as a entertainment venue for the 1996 Olympics. Thats some soul music!

    Ween was awesome. I love to stand near the back on the main floor near the bar. That way you can see the entire stage and can stay hydrated.

    Drink prices are a bit steep, BUT very strong drinks are produced. It's kind of like a win win.

    Great venue. One of the best in Atlanta. Rise against with gaslight anthem was one of the best I've seen here. Tonight, against me was great. So much better than silversun pickups.
