Between the history of the building personifying the San Francisco music scene, and the color and energy of The Fillmore’s extraordinary decor, this is an amazing place for an event. Walls and tables are covered with a dazzling display of original concert posters, tickets, handbills, newspaper articles and gorgeous original artwork from hundreds of past events that have taken place within this nostalgic location. The auditorium’s sparkle has been well preserved: ten crystal chandeliers from a castle in Austria suspended from the ceiling lend a touch of turn-of-the-century elegance: opera house-style balconies framed by gold arches overlook the dance floor and stage. There’s a long, full bar ideal for entertaining a crowd, and a state-of-the-art sound and lighting system.
