Race Street Live

The Music Hall at Gateway City Arts is now Race Street Live!

Race Street Live is a live music and event space located at 114 Race Street in downtown Holyoke. Situated on the historic Second Level Canal, our building was once the longtime home of the Judd Paper Company.

Originally under the umbrella of the Gateway City Arts complex, Race Street Live reopened in August 2021 in partnership with DSP Shows, one of the leading independent concert promoters in the country. The 2022 name change reflects the new ownership’s commitment to presenting world class live music and events in the Pioneer Valley.

The versatile venue has a capacity up to 499 for standing shows, and can accommodate 250 for seated events. With a state-of-the art sound & lighting system, incredible sightlines, a full bar, and beer garden, Race Street Live is the premier live music club in Western Massachusetts.
