Rockwood Music Hall in Boston's Fenway Has Closed

A small music venue in Boston's Fenway neighborhood has closed after less than a year in operation.

According to an article from Vanyaland, Rockwood Music Hall on Van Ness Street shut down as of May 1, with a note on the website for the place saying the following:

As a business that depends on bar sales to survive, unfortunately we were not generating enough to make operating sustainable. Thank you for all your support. All shows beyond Apr. 30th have been cancelled, tickets will be refunded automatically within 7 business days.

Rockwood first opened in the summer of 2023, having a connection to Rockwood Music Hall in Manhattan; the Boston space had a capacity of 120 and mainly featured local acts.

The address for the now-closed Rockwood Music Hall in the Fenway was 88 Van Ness Street, Boston, MA, 02215.
