About this venue
888 Garage at The Midway SF is an industrial warehouse venue in San Francisco's Dogpatch district, connected with The Midway creative complex and its wider arts scene. With a capacity of around 1,000 people, the space preserves a raw industrial character and an open, adaptable layout suited to concerts, electronic music events, art installations, performances and other productions that benefit from an unconventional setting.
The interior is not designed like a traditional concert hall with permanent seating, but as a flexible event space that can be configured for individual productions. Industrial architecture and a large open floor provide a strong setting for powerful sound, lighting and visual installations, creating an immediate and immersive atmosphere, while the exact arrangement of the stage, sound system, bars and other facilities depends on the event.
The venue is located at 888 Marin St, San Francisco, United States, just steps from The Midway's main complex. Street parking is available in the surrounding area, although spaces can be limited during larger events. The Muni stop at 3rd Street and Marin Street is only a few minutes' walk from the entrance, making it a practical option for arriving without a car.

About the city
San Francisco, the legendary Pacific-side city, is one of the most exciting U.S. hubs for concerts and sporting events. A vibrant urban scene, iconic arenas and waterfront stadiums, and the city’s constant energy make it a compelling destination for anyone looking to pair a top-tier event with an easy city break.
The city stands out for its excellent transport links, making it simple to reach major venues without hassle. From San Francisco International Airport (SFO), getting downtown is convenient via BART, while moving around the city is typically done on Muni (Muni Metro and buses). For arrivals from the Peninsula and the wider region, Caltrain is especially useful, terminating at San Francisco Station (4th & King) near key event districts, which helps you plan a smooth trip to places like Chase Center or Oracle Park.
Before or after the event, San Francisco offers plenty of “tourist bonus” moments to round out the experience. Stroll along the Embarcadero and stop by the Ferry Building, take in the skyline from Twin Peaks, or unwind in the greenery of Golden Gate Park. Must-sees include the Golden Gate Bridge, a walk around Fisherman’s Wharf and Pier 39, and neighborhoods like Chinatown and North Beach that give the city its unmistakable character.
