The Birchmere

The Birchmere is a well-known, intimate concert hall in Alexandria, Virginia, known for showcasing quality performers in the jazz, country, and folk genres. The main stage has table seating with dinner service. The room seats a couple hundred persons and the tables in front are about two feet from the stage. This allows for up-close views of the musicians, great for enthusiastic fans, budding guitarists and nostalgic baby boomers eager to see top acts from earlier days in a more personal setting. The other stage includes a dance area, perfect for Texas two-step and any other act that gets its audience up on their feet.
